**Interesting I just yesterday received in the Mail A brochure from K-12 (Bill Bennett's home schooling network) and Low and behold a Ohio Based group is offering all K-12's stuff under the guise of a Virtual Charter School for Free. This offer apparently includes a FREE Computer! **
I lead a homeschool support group of 34 families. Some of these families have opted to go the Charter route. When asked why the #1 reply is, "$$$"
A student could also use Bennett's courses privately. He was apparently upset that more homeschoolers don't use his courses, but many are suspicious because he aligns himself with public charter schools. I've only heard good things about K12 however.
