[quote=Anonymous]I am very, very dubious. https://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/10/nyregion/the-best-school-75-million-can-buy.html From that article: The for-profit model for primary and secondary schools, while popular abroad, is relatively untested in the United States. And while tuition at Avenues will cost about the same as Horace Mann’s or Collegiate’s in 2012 — almost $40,000 annually — the new school has no track record. The same cannot be said of Mr. Whittle, whose last venture, Edison Schools, did not revolutionize public education as he had envisioned or make the money he had thought he could Even further back: http://csinvesting.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Bad-Management_Has-Avenues-Mastermind-Chris-Whittle-Learned-His-Lesson.pdf He sounds like a con artist.
