I believe virtual school is something that could be used to supplement the education process but it is not an answer to very many educational questions. The "Bullying" situation in school may be getting out of hand. I know for a fact that it happens but not to the extent that some lead us to believe. To use bullying as a cover for the lack of self disipline, or parential guidance and to cover too broad a spectrum isn't good either. The charter school movement is going to come back to bite the education process in the rear. Public funds to for profit companies isn't the way to go. Bottom line we need to "fix" the public school problems by electing leaders who have educating kids above being reelected. My take.
