I’d like to see a statistic of total graduates before passing judgment. The entire point of online learning for many families is the flexibility it offers. Plus “on time” is just some made up time frame.

It may be a "made up" metric, but when their online students are worse than their in person students by nearly three times, it seems obvious they are failing at successfully implementing distance learning.

Online school is flexible yes, but graduating on time is incredibly important and that flexibility should not come at the cost of hampering a students future just because it makes things easier for the parents.

Distance learning flat out isn't viable with a naturally disinterested audience.

The reason it works with colleges is that those students are paying to be there to improve themselves. School-age kids don't think that way.
