Some school kids in a rural town outside Little Rock have found themselves on education's cutting edge.

According to a recent post on the U.S. News & Report Web site, students in Grapevine, Ark., are spending their 90-minute commute to school engaged in live learning, thanks to a WiFi-equipped school bus.

Grapevine native gone Vanderbilt University Professor Billy Hudson conceived the idea and is among those footing the bill. The kids can choose from three online classes -- pre-algebra, algebra 1 and AP biology -- to take while aboard.
