I was in Carolina Springs Academy from March 23, 2003 to July 9, 2004. While I was there, the Department of Social Services came by a number of times to inspect the living conditions of the dorms (aka trailers) the students were living in. I was interviewed once by a DSS member, but nothing was done.
The second time DSS came by CSA, I was an upper level (which means, for those of you who never attended a WWASP program, I was held above other students with more responsibility and trust and had "duties" to perform). The staff of CSA woke a few girls up to help take a few girls' personal effects, i.e; bedding, belongings, pictures, extra clothes, etc- and put them in a storage building. We didn't understand why at the time, but realized when we saw DSS walking around the campus that we were hiding these girls' stuff to give the illusion of less girls in the dorm than there really were.
The girls that helped hide the belonging were sworn to secrecy. and the entire group of girls at CSA that day were not allowed to count off or say anything to DSS.
Ponder over THAT for a while. WWASP is disgusting, lying, fraudulant and greedy. If anyone wants to verify this account I will be glad to put you in touch with the other girls that were there helping to hide the belonging, etc.
