I received a item in the mail today that made me look twice, and then a third and then a fourth time. Here was the title of the flyer:

"South Carolina Virtual Charter School students can!"

And what is this all about? It's the public school come right to your door step. Now you can get a public education without leaving your home. They'll send you the curriculum, they'll plug you into the public school community and even put you in touch with the teachers without ever leaving your home!

Here are some of the other one-liners:

"Effective, engaging learning tailored to your child"
"Tuition-free public school" (huh? I thought I paid for public education with my tax dollars)


Here's another: Research shows that the more a family participates in their children's education, the better the results for the children. Using K12 online tools and carefully-selected educational materials--combined with your caring involvement--the South Carolina Virtual Charter School ensures your children receive a comprehensive, high-quality education."

(Hmmm, sounds like home schooling to me.) Has the South Carolina education system finally admitted that home schooling is more effective? Are they trying to "indocrtinate our children"?
