I am not the person who wrote about the ed consultants, but I do know personally of two well known ones who won't refer kids to Hyde.
I would love to see someone dispute the fact that Hyde is a terrible school to get a good education! I will argue this point until the day I die. My parents were told that not only would I be educated in character, but that Hyde also had excellent teachers and programs. This is probably one of Hyde's biggest lies and I am an example of the poor educational system at Hyde School.
I am three years behind after trying everything I could to get into a good college. Oh yeah, I did the whole thing with Hyde by applying to every college on their list and of course I got into a community college. Hyde makes sure of this so that they can post their lies and false stats on their website and other media. Truth is, I was not ready for college with the poor study skills I learned at Hyde as well as the lax education. I worked it out on my own after graduating and going through some rough times and I am not saying Hyde caused my problems from childhood, but they did lie to my parents. This did cause me to falter because for the same money it cost my parents to send me to Hyde, they could have sent me to a good school that could have been more help to me. It isn't about "what you put into it, you will get out." This is all part of the bullshit cliches at Hyde and I am sick of hearing the same ones over and over again. Hyde need to get their act together and stop the lies!! Sure, blame it on the kids or blame it on the parents, but Hyde needs to take a better look at themselves. Most of those people that run Hyde are total loosers, and yes I do mean most!!

I suppose no one has raw data. That would require a full survey of educ consultants. For whatever it's worth, I personally know of 12 educational consultants (two that our family has worked with and others we've met through other parents or professional contacts) who absolutely refuse to refer kids to Hyde. Maybe that's not enough to satisfy you. I'd be willing to bet there are many more who won't refer to Hyde.

Don't know what you mean by this. Ed Consults do refer kids with all of the above afflictions. This is why Hyde has different types of kids all mixed in together and why Hyde School does not work in MHO!! If Hyde did accept "a certain kind of kid" they would have a very small school with probably 1/8 of what it is now. The stats on those kids would be pretty good overall, but instead they accept kids who don't belong at a school like Hyde.
I want you to understand that when you place your child at a school like Hyde, they are going to be exposed to all kinds of elements some of which Hyde is not capable of handling. There will be many kids who will have a negative impact on your child. Hyde uses the term, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree", inferring that it is the parents influence that has affected the child. Truth is it is all influences in a child's life, and if your child lives at Hyde for 2 or 3 years, they will also be influenced by the surroundings at Hyde.
Remember that the sweet, impressive kid who showed you around campus for the tour, is not typical of a Hyde student! Intead, ask to sit in on a "family weekend" or an "FLC" which is where individual parents go to Hyde alone for a weekend to work on themselves with their child. This is where you will get a geniune taste of Hyde!

Huh? Is this a typo? Are you saying ed consultants DON'T refer to Hyde kids with learning disorders, substance abuse issues, emotionally struggling kids? I've personally met many such kids at Hyde who got there by way of an educ consultant. The very sad reality is that some ed consultants don't seem to "get it" that Hyde is not equipped to handle these kids' special needs. That's exactly why so many kids at Hyde have a hard time there and why some parents pull their kids out of Hyde. They realize they've got a square peg-round hole problem.
