My son is enrolled in Insight School in California.insight has online high schools in 8 states. They are public charter schools and receive public funds. Yet, they are owned by the Apollo Group, a huge corporation, which also owns Phoenix University and 3 other adult education private colleges.insight is chartered in California for two locations. The first is in Southern California, and it is called Los Angeles Online High School, even though they advertise as Insight School of Los Angeles. They are chartered in Southern California by a small school district, and yet they are authorized in 5 very large counties, including San Bernardino, Orange and LA.in No.ca, they are chartered by a different small district, but for 7 huge counties, including Sonoma and Sacramento.
The only special education services they provide are through a company called Valencia Tutors in Southern CA. How do they intend to provide special education to students in Northern California? The districts that charter them have agreements that Insight will provide special education services. My child has had no services or assessments since he started with Insight. I believe that Insight has no ability to provide special education and don't care. Although they have 2 supposedly separate schools, with 2 separate non-profit corporations, the 2 schools have the same principal, teachers and students from Southern and Northern CA attend the same classes.
I am hoping to file a class action lawsuit on behalf of special education students who were enrolled or applied in Insight Schools. I am seeking input from people in other states.
