Jewish online school has an option for an additional chabad hour where the kids learn chassidus, chabad history and chabad special dates on the calendar bringing the school day up to 3 hours. They also have tutoring options which you may be able to split with another family. Definitely reach out to the school.

Have your kids attended? I would like to find out first hand information if possible. I have called the office.
Would you be able to ask the following question to your relative?
Coming from a traditional Chabad Cheder what differences are there in the schedule, materials, and Chassidshe atmosphere from a teacher's perspective? Obviously, there is a major difference between going to school in person vs online. I don't need elaboration on that point. I guess I am wondering since the school administration and faculty are Lubavitch, but the students are not necessarily, how does this play out in terms of the vibe and atmosphere of the class as well as the material taught? Does it teach as though it was a just plain frum school with no mention about the Rebbe and/or Chassidshe ideas? Are a minority or majority of the children in the older classes, for both boys and girls, Lubavitch kids? Is there any other helpful information your relative would give a parent that is looking to make the switch between in person Cheder and JOS? Thanks for your help. It is much appreciated!
Are you asking about a boy or a girl?
Boys will have considerably less hours than regular cheder so that's reflected in the amount of material covered.
The materials used during the cheder hour are very similar to traditional school. They split the kids by levels more than ages, so so long as your child is on the correct level, the chumash or yahadus is similar. Some teachers will use the Sephardic pronunciation depending on the class. I think this is more common in the evening hour classes.
The two general learning hours are plain learning with no emphasis on chabad. Chumash is chumash and yom tov is yom tov. The divrei Torah may be based on sichos as the teachers are lubavitchers after all. The morning chabad hour is fully chabad. Davening is not done during class time (unless you chose an additional option), so that won't have a conflict.
Lubavitcher kids are a minority. The children are a real mix ranging from not frum at all, to regular frum to strong litvish.
Nigri jewish online school
Its not a covid school, it's a professional school
Depending on the age you can do classes from 9- 2:30 I think.
Forsure speak to the principal. She's so kind and helpful.
The principal of the girl's division? Do you remember the principal's name so I can ask to speak with her specifically? I spoke with someone a while ago. I don't believe it was the principal. I think it was the secretary. I will call them again and find out if they now have a longer day and are teaching additional subjects. Thank you for the information!
Thank you amother maroon for your lengthy and informative reply. It was very helpful! I am looking for information regarding both the girl's and boy's division.

Chanie Hertzel is the principal but she probably doesn't deal with enrollment
