More than 1,200 students took at least one eSchool class this year, most of them supplementing coursework at one of the district’s five high schools, said Melody Whitaker, the district’s eSchool guidance counselor. But some students took only online courses. Morrow, for example, joined the program in her senior year, while Garrity took online courses all four years. The program, students say, rewards self-discipline and focus with a level of flexibility and freedom that their peers in traditional schools can only imagine. “It’s definitely not how I would have expected my senior year to go a couple of years ago, but it was still a good experience,” Morrow said.
