In-School or Online? What do you prefer?

by Kaylynn Miner

In an October 2020 survey of DWHS students, I asked what they preferred more, in-school, or online school. Of the 33 students, the majority claimed they liked in-person classes more.

Sophomore Alyssa Amos said, “I prefer in-person because I can get the actual help that I need from the teachers.”

Ava Gladhart, freshman, said, “In-person because I don’t like looking at a screen all day.” Many other students made comments on how they prefer in-person because they can receive more help and they enjoy the social aspect.

The other side of the argument claimed that online school was easier and took less time. They also said it gives them more freedom and is less work.

90.1% of people said they prefer in-person. 9.9% of people said they preferred online schooling. There were 33 total respondents, only three of which said they preferred online-schooling.

Hi, I'm Kaylynn! This year I am a freshman at DWHS. Currently, I am involved in FFA, Scholars Bowl, Journalism, The Student Advisory Team, the Play -"How to Host a Murder Mystery Dinner Party"- I hold the role of "The Maid", Choir, and KAY Club! I recently received an award for placing top twenty in the FFA Green hand Test! Which apparently..is a big deal, and I am our class' creed speaker! Outside of school I enjoy riding atv's, hanging out with friends, and going outside with my family! So far I have really enjoyed school this year, my classes are fun, and my teachers are all nice! I would have to say my favorite class would either be Biology, or Agriscience. I can't wait to see where this year will take me! If school is still in person. I hope to participate in track -mainly shot-put and discus- I took part in track my seventh-grade year, and had a great time! Due to on-going injuries, I can't really do sports because of a torn meniscus. I had surgery on it back in December of 19' since then it has re-torn and I am attending physical therapy once a week. In the past, I played volleyball for one year and softball for nine years! That's all folks! Thanks for visiting my page!!
