The phenomenon of the "virtual school" has generated much excitement. Considered by many to have revolutionized the way education is delivered and accessed in the digital era of the Information age, virtual learning in the United States has roots that go way back in the late 18th century. The modern precursor to the contemporary virtual schools is the mail-based correspondence school, said to have been invented in 1891 at the University of Chicago. From mail-based systems, delivery mechanisms soon evolved to radio programs to television and satellite broadcasts to the Internet-based virtual schools of today. Virtual schools using the Internet as medium were launched in the 1990s but its foundation established before that period. In 1988, the federal Star Schools program was started with particular emphasis on providing distance-education technologies through telecommunication partnerships to small rural schools. In August 1993, a charter school was built by Horizon Instructional Systems in Lincoln, California, offering programs that include an "electronically assisted student teaching" program that blended home-based computers with satellite technology and distance education. The K-12 virtual school appears to have materialized in the summer of 1995 when the Eugene, Oregon-based CyberSchool Project was launched by nine district teachers. By 1996, the hype of the virtual school took ground with the establishment of the experimental WebSchool in Orange County Florida; Cyber-School Academy in Washington State; the Concord Virtual High School which was built through a $7.5 million grant; and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. What concretized the presence of K-12 virtual schools is the emergence of large, multi-state programs such as the Florida Virtual School, founded in 1997 and the Virtual High School (Greenway & Vanourek, 2006).
