How many families are transferring to virtual schools?  With the uncertainty of traditional public schools opening in the Fall due to Covid 19, parents are looking at virtual schools.  Virtual schools are finding a long term opportunity in running a program paid by tax payers and managed by a for profit company.  Here is an article by The Seattle Times on WAVA as it operates in Washington State currently.

Virtual schools were poised to step in. And they have. Like traditional schools, virtual programs are paid for by taxpayers. This includes schools managed by for-profit companies: WAVA is one of two virtual schools here operated by Virginia-based K12 Inc. The publicly traded company is a titan in the for-profit online education world. It runs about 70 online schools in 30 states, and has about 120,000 full-time students in its public programs.
