I have said it before but I think kids having access to certain courses through video conferencing is very important. We have the Supernet up and running already and there is no reason the rest of the technology can't be put into place in every single school(especially rural ones)....to give kids a bigger opportunity.

I was blessed with a math teacher that took it upon himself to teach physics even though he knew next to nothing about it and we ended up having a great class. Or a principal who took it upon himself to teach gym class despite having never done it before. And throughout all my years in school teachers always seemed to step-up when needed.

But not everyone has those chances.
