 “Debate It –Expertise- and Consumer-oriented Approaches” Please respond to the following:

Expertise- vs. Consumer-oriented Approach – Many school districts offer alternative choices for high schools.  Some of these choices include: charter schools, school of choice, and online schools.

• Assume there is no public high school in your community, review some of the alternative choices or options that would fit your criteria for a high school.  From one of your selection, provide the web link to the program. 
• Take a stance on which view, expertise or consumer approach, is the appropriate method to help parents decide on the school for their child.  Provide some rational or reason for picking this method.
