"Kids are only asked to leave Hyde if they are a threat to the community. It's sounds like your kid's outbursts don't fit in to the program, disrupting it and making it hard for Hyde to work for the other kids.
Does he/she have to leave right away or are they just not accepting him/her for next year...
If it's the latter you're not "Out $35K", you paid for the school year and that's what you got.
Hopefully as a family, there was some positive movement, if not, it ain't just your kid's fault for getting the hook!"

IT IS SO NOT TRUE that kids only get kicked out if they are a threat to the community! What kind of threat? Do you mean a physical threat or maybe did he piss off the wrong person? HYDE has a pattern of kicking kids out and keeping the money. You don't know what you are talking about when you say they only throw out threatening kids!! I personally know of families who have been thrown out because Joe Gauld or one of the other maniacs didn't agree with a parent. I saw one child cry and cry the day they were asked to leave because the administration didn't like the father's behavior!

They gave up on him awfully quickly despite the fact that he does not lie, cheat, steal, engage in sexual activity, or use drugs, alcohol, or tobacco - as most of the students there do - and was doing well academically. The school knew before admitting him that he had a temper control problem, and I'm sure I was quite specific as to the nature of his verbal outburts. To my knowledge, he has had 3 such episodes since November - really very few considering how difficult it is to be new to the Hyde "process" and in my mind, reflected progress! I had also seen progress in other areas with him and had come around to embrace and trust the school's philosophy - despite the odd scene I witnessed with Joe Gauld being rude and condescending to parents who dared question him during an FLC weekend.
Now we are out $35,000, not to mention all the time and money spent going to and fro to school and regional meetings, and looking at our son's sophomore year going down the drain. How ironic that the small Catholic high school he WAS attending seemed so much more compassionate and equipped and willinig to work with him! Sad ....."

You do not need to "be out $35,000" unless there is much more than you are saying. There are legal ways to recoup this money

Can you offer practical advice about the best way to challenge Hyde legally? Names of lawyers who have experience doing this and know what Hyde is all about?

When you were talking about angry outburst at first I thought you were talking about Joe. (Just Kidding Joe) Your kid bet Hyde. Where are the teachers of old who would break down the seeming insurmountable barriers, like Annie Sullivan? Hyde is giving up? Perhaps hyde is not challenging the staff enough.
Kids with dope in the dorms? Summer school maybe. There were so many kid that would turn you in regular year, it was like the stazi in East Germany. Dope? Damn not when I was there. I would have like to step out after sports and stoked up a stick of the old chronic. Sounds like the whole place has gone down hill. Oh wait this must be Woodstock. Never mind.

I would be willing to bet you signed an agreement that waived your rights. They can be delt with by a good lawyer. Hyde probably settles these things out of court and requires a non -disclosure agreement. ISn't there a lawyer on this list that is a disgruntled grad? He could tell you how to network to find some one that knows the ropes. I bet it has been done before.
