I too have witnessed many times when Joe Gauld lost it with both parents and students. It amazes me that the rest of the Hyde staff tolerate this kind of behavior. Of course, it may be that they condone it and see nothing wrong with it. Or maybe some of the Hyde staff are intimidated by Joe Gauld. Whatever the case, this man's inappropriate public displays do lots of damage to the school's reputation. It's sad that some of the staff seem to mimic his style, which only adds to the growing impression that Hyde is not a good place for most kids and their parents. I can't believe that so many people go to Hyde despite its reputation. What I've come to realize is that many parents fall for the Hyde "spin" and then figure out how bad it is once they get there. Perhaps that's why there's so much turnover and a high drop-out rate.

Seems to me that the person who compared Gauld with the definition of "narcissistic personality disorder" hit the nail squarely on its head. Why would anyone send their child to a school like Hyde that follows that man's lead? No wonder Hyde is the target of so much criticism.

Seems we have a comedian on this site. You are definitely entertaining Sid, or Meryl or whoever you are! I get the feeling you went to Hyde many years ago. According to what I am reading it seems Hyde has not changed one bit from all those years ago even though laws have changed and a stronger liability exists for Hyde. Do you think they are so arrogant that they don't care? What's the deal with this Joe Gauld? Does he think he is a prophet or God? I did not go to Hyde nor do I have a child who goes there, but I was researching boarding schools and came across this very interesting and amusing board. Hyde is definitely not for my son, but I have enjoyed reading up on this weird school.

Consider yourself among the very fortunate who have managed to avoid Joe Gauld and his lieutenants. Although he occasionally has constructive things to say, more often Gauld is full of contradictions and is the perfect model of what NOT to do when working with adolescents. The ultimate irony is that Gauld's hissy fits and public in-your face, finger-pointing rants and tantrums resemble the adolescent behavior that Hyde claims it addresses. Imagine that - a school administrator who says that Hyde is where you ought to send your misbehaving, out-of-control adolescent, and then the adolescent gets to model himself after the CEO who often behaves like a misbehaving, out-of-control adolescent. How weird is that?
