High Tech High

Luka is only 18 months old, but living in LA you learn you have to think about school very early. The situation is scary, with public schools in a bad shape, especially in some areas (like ours). We support public schools, but I cannot send Luka to just any school. So I started looking... We know we will probably have to move in a few years to be close to a school we like, even for a charter school, because I do not want to spend hours commuting (I spend too much time in traffic as is).
As I find info about some schools, I will post it here. For today, here is a link to High Tech High, a number of charter schools in San Diego which have a very interesting and novel approach to schooling - no sit down lectures, all learning is through projects and hands on work. And no books, for all reference materials they have - computers (of course). That is exactly a type of school I would like Luka to go to. Maybe in a few years they will have one of those in LA?
