Charlie's School House

The intent of Charlie's School House was from the beginning to give Moms and Dads (and Kids) resources as they found themselves at home (stuck). We now have many links and resources on this site, so we will update less frequently. We hope you find the sites useful, informative, and fun.

My invention that made peace with lionsIn the Maasai community where Richard Turere lives with his family, cattle are all-important. But lion attacks were growing more frequent. In this short, inspiring talk, the young inventor shares the solar-powered solution he designed to safely scare the lions away.

Welcome to Charlie's School House. We will try to post links here that may be of help to students (and parents) that may be temporarily at home.
