I have an opportunity to possibly work with/for a company called Educational Options. They provide a web-based curriculum/testing aids for schools. The contact mentioned that many schools in Florida are already using this system, as are thousands of schools across the country.

Its called Novel and STARS systems for Educational Options.

While this sounds like a great company, I am curious if anyone has heard of this, and any feedback you have. Thanks.

I used to work in online education and I've never heard of these particular systems, but we only dealt with the mid-Atlantic states.

Honestly, there's not enough money in the world that would make me work for an online education company again (okay, there is, but it's a lot). The biggest problem is dealing with school districts who are slow to pay, but demand ridiculous amounts of service. Unfortunately, those are most of them. You would not believe the things I had to do to cover my payroll because of that.

Mrs. m, have you heard of it?
