Hyde School, The Most Truthful Informative Post I have Seen

Hmmm... well, they weren't when I was there in the 80s, and from all recent accounts from other folks here, they aren't now, either.
So I would say that the truth is that they are not addressing those issues. Granted, I'm not there today, so I'm not 100% positive. But again, if today is anything like it was when I was there, those kids are suffering.

I was there in the late 90's and believe me nothing has changed at Hyde nor will it ever change as long as the old guard is still there. Kids are still suffering!

I don't agree. I think Hyde SOMETIMES exports kids who need to take care of their addiction or other psychiatric issue. But I've met so many Hyde kids with serious addiction or psychiatric issues who managed to fly below that radar and didn't get the help they need. Rather, they ended up floundering badly at Hyde. Some of them had major problems complying with Hyde's rules and got into trouble (being put on 2-4 for extended periods of time and much worse); it was so obvious that these kids needed help that Hyde couldn't possibly provide them but they stayed at Hyde anyway.
That's just another aspect of the Hyde tragedy, that is, all the students who could probably benefit from the right kind of treatment program combined with competent schooling. I've seen many kids that Hyde couldn't serve properly. The kids suffered mightily. What seems so sad is that many parents at Hyde ended up there by default (the parents needed to find a school fast or they were misled by Hyde's public relations materials) and don't seem to know how many good and preferable alternatives there are.
