What is a "Virtual Charter School"??

2. Online courses.

We have them in PA. The kids get a free computer while they are enrolled and take all their classes online. Sounds like the state of Maine wants to start its own, though.

I have had students who enrolled and sat at home looking at a computer screen all day instead of interacting with their peers and real live teachers. I suppose it has a place for students who cannot attend actual schools, but we have had some kids try it and then come back to real school.

It's another way for *someone* to make money from public tax dollars.
