text: First off, during a students high school career they will meet many new people. For example, Generic_School in Generic_City has almost 2,000 students. The students at Generic_School see new faces almost every day when they are walking down the halls. When a student takes online classes they do not get this opportunity. When students first get to high school teachers often put their students in groups and that is how students meet new people, for a student working on an online class the only time the student would get to communicate with another student would be over messaging and not face to face. Another way students get to meet people by physically going to school is by participating in sports or extracurricular activities. In conclusion, it is easier to meet people by actually attending school rather than going to online school.
