[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just fell down a rabbit hole looking at everything Pearson is up to. Did you know they are running their own, "tuition free online charter school"? https://www.connectionsacademy.com/program/cost How are they running it tuition free? I saw an ad for "jobs for teachers" at Pearson. They will pay $19 an hour for a 9 hour day for "Family Enrollment Counselors" to enroll students in these schools. Who is funding this? Who is TEACHING this?[/quote] They take money from Public Ed because they are "charter.". They assign way more kids to each teacher than reasonable. And they are held to *none* of the same accountability measures as public schools last I checked. Horrible outcomes. Look up the court case against them in CA where it was argued that these schools were actually hurting the bottom line of the state in the long run.[/quote]
