I attended an expensive private school until 6th grade, a typical public school from 6th-8th grade, and did my 'high-school' years at an online school.
I learned legitimate skills at the private and traditional public schools. I learned nothing of value at the cyber school. The first two actually focused on developing a concept to the point where it could be applied. Math was one such example. The cyber school was very obviously designed to allow the students to just cheat. As in, literally have the book open in your lap and take the test.
If I had gone to the cyber school for my entire education cycle I'd undoubtedly be severely disadvantaged in the same way described by the [0] article (about Feynman )linked in another comment. Parroting facts can get you the job, but it won't help you do the job.
