The Trouble With a Charter School Is……
Sometimes they are just too much of a “public school”. One of the reasons I liked the idea of using Odyssey Charter High School for Roger’s high school because of the interaction with other kids… as well as some interaction with teachers. I also really didn’t feel like I had the time, being that I’m working on growing a small business in todays economy, to do my own curriculum. I needed something that was ready made! Well.. the down side to having something “ready made” and using a public charter school, is that it’s still a public school and all that that implies.

This is not just a “pen pal” type of social networking site for kids, it’s also a charity program that kids can get involved in and win some cool prizes. Here’s what the site says:
