[CCSD] is spending $617,500 in federal stimulus funds to expand Advanced Academics to eight high schools this year.
Like the article stated, these virtual academies are PUBLIC schools. Sooner or later this fad will prove to be no different than other forms of public education: high costs, poor results. Get the government OUT of K-12.
We homeschool. Yes, we've heard (good things) about these online academies. Yes, we qualify for "free" goodies. Yes, we could choose the "minimal CCSD involvement" plan. Etc and so forth.
We STILL won't sign up. We don't want to be a burden to our taxpaying neighbors. We don't want to give the government the front door keys. We don't want the government snooping on our broadband connection.
