I'm writing another paper for my English class that ends in 2 days. I need help figuring out if this claim/counterclaim/rebuttal is correct enough to proceed.

Claim- Online high schools are a very viable option for graduation.
Counterclaim Reason- In online high schools, it is much easier to procrastinate and not graduate.
Rebuttal to the counterclaim reason- True, it is easy to procrastinate in online high school; but, most online schools' curriculum is advanced, fast-paced, and courses can go further in-depth without stressing students. It is then easy for students to graduate.

I'm in an online school, I'm in an online HIGH school.

It's not easy, because sometimes you can't get a direct visual, and it's still quite hard to get the teacher's attention. Whether they hear you or don't see you. The online curriculum is very fast-paced, which can be a struggle at times.

Sure it can help you online, but being online also has some downfalls. And sure enough, you might not remember half of what you could actually remember irl. The teachers try to make it as simple as possible, furthermore, it's more difficult.

Let me put myself as an example:

I still have homework from Wednesday that I need to complete. But there are things out there I keep accidentally distracting myself with. Online school is hard, and it may be easy for some people, but understanding it is far worse than eating a moldy apple.

A claim is the overall "decision" of ur reading...  You wanna make ur claim sound more dramatic.. It needs to have more meaning to it..  Example:  Reasoning- Online Schools allow students more help to graduate easier without the distraction of other students around them...
