--- Quote from: "RobertBruce" ---So from a finacial perspective, you at best case not including trip expenses broke even. Counting the trip expenses you lost money on the trip.
RC was operating with several positions filled. They then lost the people in those positions either through terminations, layoffs, or the people simply quit. Now they are attempting to refill those same previously filled positions.
3-3+3=3 That is not growth. Stop spinning.

If you look at the web site and the employees they had last year you would see that these are newly created positions that are opening up. Len is taking a step back from his various hats and hiring new people due to present and anticipated expansion. There is no requirement that they have to hire people, Robert. Adding all these salaried people to their roster is a result of their present growth and preparing for 2011.
I think we can all agree that if they were not doing well then they would be laying off. So we can conclude that they are thriving in this economy and preparing for a prosperous 2011.

They aren't required to have a headmaster? Or an admissions director? What kind of place is this? You're claiming now they've been operating this entire time without these key positions filled?

When businesses are starting out and are small the owner takes on many responsibilities and is the head of every department. As the business grows and prospers the owner steps back and hires department heads and other employees to meet with the growing demand. As RCS continues to grow they will hire more people.

Starting out? Whooter RC has been around for years. Furthermore much of the infrastructure of HLA was simply transfered over to RC after we forced Buchi to close up shop. So you're claiming that this entire time RC has been operating without key staff members?

RC was a wilderness only and just recently changed into a boarding school for college preparatory kids who are at-risk. After HLA closed they needed to start over. When a place starts over they need to employ (or re-employee) new ed-cons to refer students to them. They need to employ new people, this takes time to grow the business back to the point where they can afford to hire heads for each department, especially Master leveled employees. Small businesses and businesses starting out are run by the people who start them and they wear several hats for years until the business grows to a point where they can start hiring people to head up various departments which allows the owners to step back a little and manage the business instead of the day to day details.
It appears that RCS has positioned itself to take on more students than it did in 2010. Hiring heads of departments is a very good sign especially in this economy.
