Online school can be stressful and hard. It is difficult to get used to virtual school. Online school takes its toll mentally and physically after watching a screen and sitting on a chair for almost eight hours.

Virtual school can be complicated. 

¨Besides the occasional tech issues, I would say that some of my delivery doesn’t always translate as well over the screen. I also think that as the weeks progress, I am learning how to better adapt and students are also getting used to the general proceedings,¨ U.S. History teacher Manuel Delgadillo said.

Online learning can be complicated. 

¨Online has affected me because my back is always hurting and I have headaches often because of looking at the screen for eight hours a day,¨ junior Janis Slape said.

Students and teachers have different opinions about virtual learning. Some prefer staying home, others want to go back to the building.

¨I understand we need it for right now but once this is over, I can’t wait to go back to school,¨ senior Ramon Urueta said. 

One thing is for sure, online school shifts more responsibility on the students.
