text: Students would benefit from being able to attend class from home, as this would eliminate the negative consequences of the social environment that is present at school, and would allow the students to focus more on their education and less on the social aspects of school. When packing thousands of teenagers into a building together and forcing them to learn, there are bound to be students that don't get along which can lead to bullying, mental health issues, and social issues. This is simply an inevitable part of school, but by allowing students to do class from home, the students no longer have to face the social enivornment at school that not only negatively affects the mental health of students, but also their ability to focus. In fact, in a nationally conducted study, 87% of students said the social enivornment at school had in one way or another negatively impacted their overall wellbeing. Over half of the students surveryed also said that they felt their ability to focus had been affected by the environment present at school, which negatively impacted their grades. Distance learning eliminates these issues almost entirely, as students are no longer forced to be in an environment they don't feel comfortable in.
