We went to live online classes immediately because we were ready for it. I talk to people all over the country and everyone had either no school or asynchronous online with no or little teacher contact. We taught live classes every day. Now we're learning a hybrid schedule. This is a forward leaning school which is ahead of nearly anyone.

It's not that bad of a school, but it has a lot of problems and everyone knows it. They try to make an end to bad things but never really do and they seem to be robbing you of your money. (clubs each are $30)
