Does this sound like anyone you know? For those of you who have not gone to Hyde, this is a description of Joe Gauld which is what makes Hyde very scary. He learned these tactics while going through AA and introduced them as part of the culture at Hyde School.

TTBOMK Joe never went to AA.  His wife, Blanche , was an active alcoholic in the years that I was there.  He was going to alanon an made a trip to hazelton during my tour of Bath Me.  this was in the mid seventies. so the founding of hyde pre dates his involvement with the 12 based programs, which i might add work for about 10% of alcoholics.

Excuse me for not being as smart as you, but what does "TTBOMK" mean?

--- Quote from: ""Guest"" --- Funny how a few visitors to this site trash Hyde's educational standards. There are kids who left Hyde, screwed up and fell on their faces, as with many/most schools. This individual is probably one of them (or a parent of one), and it seems much easier to blame someone else (Hyde) for one's own failure. I graduated there and along with ALL of my classmates went on to various colleges and did fine. Several that I know of have done graduate and advanced graduate work. Not sure where the disconnect is, but some folks here sure likes to paint a grim picture of Hyde academics, when it's just not true (except perhaps in their own case...).

Go on Myspace and search for Hyde Schools.  See what you come up with.  Most of them seem along the lines of this.....


 
--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---Don't mean to bash you, but if indeed you went to Hyde and if indeed you went to college, you invaribly would know that Hyde's education is practically non existent.  I excel in college now, but it was made much harder because I did not have a good foundation at Hyde.  My spanish teacher was less versed in Spanish then I was.  The head of one of the other depts barely got through school himself and was not qualified to be a teacher no less a department head.  I disagree with you that it is the students fault for not doing well in school.  It is necessary to have good teachers and the good teachers do not work at Hyde.  If we were lucky to get a decent one, they left within a year.  Why is it that teachers in the public school system stay until they retire, but at Hyde they don't last more than a year or two?  Please don't give me the typical Hyde lecture about Hyde being a tough place and you must be totally committed. If Hyde succeeded as they advertise, then they would attract good teachers from all over.  This is not the case at Hyde.

Well this certainly contridicts what the other poster said about most kids having a positive experience at Hyde.  Where can I go to find these posts about Hyde?
