You mean double enroll in Friendship and the home charter? I think if that's something that charters have money for it's fine.

But you know there are going to be people demanding virtual from their home schools.

I assume that people want to keep their charter spot so they wouldn't be enrolling in Friendship directly. Because that would mean disenrolling from their own school.

I wonder how charters with niches will do it -- Montessori, bilingual.

That's what my council member's office told me -- that charters would be contracting with Friendship. Or at least trying to.

It does seem like some BS, doesn't it?
