The state’s N.C. Virtual Public School program offers courses to high school students across the state – often courses that don’t have high demand but ones that students in various parts of the state need or desire, and courses that students have flunked which can be recovered without students having to go back through a whole semester. But the K12 Inc. managed school would be different. http://pulse.ncpolicywatch.org/2012/07/30/for-profit-cyber-schools-company-gets-more-heat/
