So now, Chase logs on to his school-supplied computer around 9 a.m. to catch the day’s assignments.
“It’s the same, kind of," said Chase.

"We do the same work, it’s just you can’t talk to teachers in the same way. We use Google Hangouts."
He misses his classmates, though. They had a conference call last week.
“It was fun because we stayed on the call for like an hour,” said Chase.
The Mount, a sports-focused private school, has already incorporated a lot of e-learning to accommodate its travelling athletes.
Chase’s advice for success? Get focused — and leave devices in a different room.
“Take an hour or two and not have any distractions and finish your work. You’ll probably be finished early,” he said.
Chase’s dad, Paul McLeod, says sticking to a familiar routine is important.
“Structure is probably the best thing. That was encouraged by the school, to kind of have the same rhythm,” he said.
