Group touts plan for charter schools in Maine
http://www.pressherald.com/news/group-touts-plan-for-independent-public-schools_2011-02-08.html

The Blue Hill Harbor School in Hancock County educates 14 students who complete high school by following a curriculum based on their personal interests.

At The Community School in Camden, eight students – some of whom previously dropped out of school – live on campus and follow individualized curriculums that allow them to intern at businesses. The school's 40 other students are teenage mothers who earn diplomas by completing a home-based high school program.

And in Cornville, members of a committee that will recommend uses for the town's recently closed school see a chance to revive their community school.

What do they have in common?
