Essence reported that Adam Mangana ’05, current executive director of Optima Domi, is cofounder of Optima Classical Academy, the world’s first-ever virtual reality charter school. The tuition-free school will be based in Florida and has plans to initially enroll up to 1,300 students, grades 3-8, for its inaugural classes in August 2022. Mangana says it will merge a virtual reality classroom with classical learning pillars personalized to students’ needs. Each classroom will be led by real teachers who are superimposed into the virtual classroom and can respond in real time.
