I see huge problems with public education, but can't
see virtual schools providing a solution. At least a
financial one.

Most students ride the bus - their parents are at
work. We have to have in-school suspension because
parents will not assume responsibility for their
children for 2 days. Most districts in the Houston
area are providing free and reduced breakfast and
lunch - will we have to deliver?
