--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---hla primarily uses ridge creek, but sometimes they would send kids to three springs, second nature, or somewhere like that, temporarily and let them come back.

it's not quite that simple:

one parent said that hla wouldn't let her son come back to hla if she and her husband didn't agree with hla to send her son to a $20,000 wilderness program. she told them they couldn't afford it because they were broke from paying hla's tuition and other fees. hla told her that they had no choice but to dismiss him, but it would be considered a "withdrawal" (withdrawal = no refund on 3 month deposit) because they didn't agree to hla's "recommendation". she had to pull her son so his transcript wouldn't show he had been dimissed from hla. either way they got screwed out of their deposit.

Yeah, I heard about that rebellion too.  One of the staff from HP said that people kept coming into the office thinking they were that one program where the kids rebelled and beat up all the staff, tied them up, and took off in the car.  But the kids at HP definitely would never do that.  Nope, revenge and freedom never crossed my mind.

i think that the kid that was "recommended" to go to another wilderness program had already run his/her gammut with ridge creek - as in went through rci 4 or 5 times and was still doing whatever the thing was he was doing...not that it was right or wrong...just another case of someone that probably should NOT have been at hla in the first place...can we say $$$$$
