He may be clandestinely accessing it. He could be on a home pass or some outpatient level. If s/he's over 18, they'd be more likely to offer more oppourtunities to secretly access the internet/sites like thsi.

Harmony Heigths (http://http://harmonyheights.org/) is both a dayschool and a boarding school.
The kids come from the districts and some paperwork is need to be "enrolled", so it is not a normal private TBS, which takes whatever teens the transporters drag over the doorstep.
Beside nice wording about what they do, it is difficult to tell what is going on.

daughter attended this school for two and 1/2 years. Great staff. Nurturing, caring and very supportive. They saved my daughters life.

I completely agree with the comment that mentions the turn-over rate. 12 staff members left during the two years I attended! That is a mammoth number for a school staffed with maybe a few dozen. It is a better place than some, maybe even most, but it is not the supportive place that they claim it is for everyone.

Excellent school! I attended this school for 2 1/2 years. The staff was great! I would have never graduated high school without their help and support.

Harmony Heights is who you know! Or should I say who they prefer. A federally funded school who believes they carry an Elite Private Status. If your daughter is not liked by this administration 'watch out'. Although they claim to raise self esteem in students they do a better job by shooting it down. The teachers are wonderful but beware, the turn over rate is fast and furious. Before you have your daugter attend this institution know your rights; your gonna need to or they may never allow her the right to graduate.
