“We found some students who were interested in Mandarin Chinese online, and I served as their mentor because I wanted to learn as much about the process as I could,” Bush says. By around 2010, those few students taking a variety of online courses, evolved into about 40 per semester. At that point, Bush designated a staff member to the program. “In the first couple of years we almost had to find things for him to do to justify his full-time position,” recalls Bush, who is now the superintendent of Coloma Community Schools. “But by the time I left Coopersville in 2014, there were nearly 300 students each semester taking online courses.”
