Lori Heist "Spanish Teacher" apparently has
no degree whatsoever.  I thought all teachers
were properly trained - guess I was wrong.
$5700 per month for an "academic boarding school"
that cannot even hire qualified teachers. My
child who is gifted in languages could probably
have taught Spanish, too.

RobertBruce:
Anyone puppets care to argue how reasonable this is considering the kids get almost nothing for it?

I think it's important for people to understand that, although HLA and its supporters claim it is "improving," actually the opposite is true.

When I worked there at its inception, it was a hard requirement that all PG counselors had an MA Psy, MSW or higher and all AC's had a BA Psy or BS SW minimum.  Of course, the exception was the staff they brought over from CEDU, all of whom were completely uneducated.  New hires, however, all had to meet the minimum requirements above.

Now it appears there are no minimum standards at all.  PG counselors have unrelated degrees, no degrees, etc.  Qualifications for AC's have slipped to "loves sports" or none at all.

If this is "getting better," "improving," or "refining" I'd hate to see what "backsliding" looks like.

The price keeps going up and the quality of staff and the care they provide keeps going down.

This is because it is getting harder and harder to find people that want to work at HLA.  The word is out on what a depressing environment it is to work in.
