I had a great time at this school at first. But then they would push me for things I didnt want. It was basically all about what worked for them, not the students. They told me that I didnt need 2 years of the same language and when I said yes you do, one of the teachers interupted and said ¨No you dont! No you dont! Thats not true!¨ Then I told her to look it up then she was like ¨Ohhhh my bad I apologize you are right¨ I took a language that they didnt offer, so I had to take that class at a community college, OFL offered me no guidance besides petty emails asking if I finished enrolling into the community college. Ended up giving up on that so I had to take 2 years of their language in one year. My goal was to graduate a semester early, but when I started turning in a lot more work it turned out I was going to graduate a year early. In April, I was mentally drained and needed a break since I was doing hours hours straight of schoolwork. But my school kept calling me and pressuring me to do more even though I exceeded their expectations all year. They would write big paragraphs that werent so nice, almost like they just wanted me out of their way. I got really frustrated and just decided to do the last 5 units in three days. I finished school 3 weeks early. So then I had nothing to do for three weeks. One time on a zoom meeting the teacher was trying to screenshare and they accidentally opened a chat with another teacher, and they were saying bad things about me and my parent. I personally do best learning on my own, but there is no help. You basically have to be your own teacher.

OFL Virutal math classes are abominable! The curriculum is a joke. The student is left to teach themselves the math curriculum based on internet research. I fail to see how OFL is CSU/UC approved.
