That's great! They all went thru that online program via DCUA?  [/quote]

No.  The online program was just introduced this season. Check back in two to three years to see how those kids fare that have been in DCUs online school for the bulk of their high school years.  [/quote]

Will they graduate?  Yes for sure. But still very much tbd how the online school positions them against traditional schools in terms of college entrance.  I would say the online school doesn't give them an edge and it may hurt a bit in terms of the rigor of their classes compared to top public and private schools in our country.  The online school isn't about producing academic stars.  It is about allowing the kids the flexibility to train twice a day so that DCU can have a better chance at producing a pro.  The incentives aren't aligned.  If you know that, then you understand that the online school is what it is.  [/quote]
