Do we still need school buildings?

by John Eggers, Bemidji Pioneer

Schools as we know them today will no longer exist in 2114. School buildings are still constructed today, but before long, one of the questions that communities should begin to ask is “Do we still need a school building?” As you know, it is now possible to get a high school diploma by attending a virtual high school where everything is online. Colleges and universities have been operating “schools” without campuses for many years and more and more classes are being offered online every year. Online learning is big business. At one time, our college campuses were filled with meandering summer school students but today’s campuses are pretty quiet.
