DO you mind being more specific in your comments. Honestly I'm not sure what your saying NO about.

Houses are cheap for a reason. Nobody wants to live there because:

1. Traffic is sick.
2. Crime is on the rise.
3. Cheap houses bring in people who can afford said cheap houses.

Granted it is fairly close to the back gate of hunter. I just think there are better places to live other than George Town. Savannah is kinda stuck the way it is. The only place to exspand is west, which is where everyone is headed. Like George Town even with the traffic.

Wow things must of really changed since I moved in May 2004. We really liked the area and the traffic wasn't traffic as far as I'm concerned. Granted I was stationed in DC for many years so my opinion might be warped based on it.

I sure hope my street is still nice place to live. If not I'm sure I can sell it and look for a place to live elsewhere. I'm seriously considering moving on post anyhow.

Thank you for your opinion

Is this homeschool? Or is this something I can supplement our children still attending public schools to close the gaps?

Ok I"m thoroughly confused. So where is the school located? Because I went to the site and maybe I'm just not real bright. But I didnt see any mention to a campus; I could of sworn it was a virtual campus. Where you basically get assignements you do at home (i.e. homeschooling).. Log on post your assignments is the way I read it.

I apologize if I'm missing something.

You have it. There is no Campus it is a state sponsored Public Virtual School.
Not homeschooling because there is a teacher not parent teaching, but the learning is at home.

No I don't think I get it. But I guess thats ok. I can't see my 2nd grader, 1st grader and kindergarten aged children logging online to download there homework and self teaching themselves. I think its still a form of homeschooling with all the assignments and syllabus in online format. I have taken many online classes and I dont see a child that young able to do so. Unless its with adult supervision and direction (if so then thats a form of homeschooling). I forsee me having to log on for them and printed all there work and having them work on it in a timely manner. Then grading it I guess as well.

I guess its public school because I havent really found a private school I can afford for all my children.

Thanks for your attempts to make me understand. I still plan to look into a Magnet program. But I assume its highly competitive and with us getting there in the summer I'm sure will miss any testing involved.
