Good morning! It's Ann Schimke with Chalkbeat Colorado.
Even years after the pandemic, many Colorado college students take some classes online. Reporter Jason Gonzales looks into the trend, and the unique hybrid setup that some instructors provide.
A note about a story we published last week: We reported that an HBCU-style high school in Denver would close at the end of the school year due to very low enrollment. Yesterday, we heard from a Denver Public Schools spokesperson that the district gave us some incorrect information. The closure isn't finalized yet; while the district superintendent recommended the closure, the school board must vote to approve it. Read the updated story here.
