Online Phys Ed Classes: Legit or Loophole?

I have a confession. Back in high school, I satisfied my required gym credit by taking a nutrition class — online.

With online education becoming more prevalent these days, some states in the U.S. allow students to satisfy high school physical education requirements through online courses. Making gym class virtual may seem ironic in an era when more than one in three American children and teens are overweight or obese. But online classes open doors for students who don't have space in their schedule or for those who might prefer to workout in private.
