people find information to things they might wonder about, and if a parent or child were looking for a free virtual high school and were to stumble upon a list that was just private virtual high schools or a mixture of both public and private, they might get discouraged and give up. Why? Because they'd have to pay for it, and
Knowledge probably isn't supplying them the information they needed. It might not be a main reason not to list all virtual high schools, but I think it's a pretty good reason and it's what I first thought of to refute that statement. Think about it.

And if you were to create a new list, it would be so long. I don't want to say anything, and I feel extremely bad doing so, but it just might get deleted or not even meet notability.
