Ridge Creek "School" - Serious Safety Issues/ORS Violation
RobertBruce:
--- Quote ---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.

So again you're sticking by the claim that RC has never had these positions filled?
Dysfunction Junction:
Bruce is correct here. They had these positions filled previously and now are operating without them.
DEE:
These positions, along with a number of others, are vacant because those who held them previously feared for their personal saftey, as well they should. No one, to my knowledge, is still working at Hidden Lake/Ridge Creek who was there a few years ago, or even one year ago. My prediction is that those they hire to fill these positions will not be there one year from now, unless they are all former corrections department employees who are used to dealing with dangerous criminals.

Thanks for clarifying this for us, DEE. Our resident RCS spokesperson has been spinning several yarns about the state of affairs at RCS. I'm glad to get your confirmation that he is indeed lying.

Guest 3 I am surprised your dialogue is allowed. Mine was deleted without notice:) I gather one cannot advise another "they are out of their league."
To the above poster... Guest 3 has read ALL the ORS regulations, along with myself, and Deborah. There was constant dialogue between the ORS and the activists aforementioned, including DJ, to tighten the loopholes in their regulations and to finally require Hidden Lake Academy that was "with purpose" "operating undar the radar and allowed to for over 11 years(at the time of ORS licensing). Documents and emails between the ORS and the aforementioned activists, also shared with the GAO agents are solid. Their findings, "all the Georgia agencies, including the Georgia GAO and the ORS repeatedly dropped the ball." Among other things. Agent recommendation " Go to the Federal Att. Gen. of Georgia."
The last exchange with the ORS in 2010, emails and the Governor's office(phone conversation) was still demanding accountability.
Guest 3 met with the GAO agents assigned to Hidden Lake Academy in Washington, D.C. and the GAO interviewed countless others by visits in Georgia and lengthy phone conversations, emails, document collection over 4 months.
Mr. Buccellato dodged their bullet, only because of the on-going Class suit in Federal court.
