Requesting Parents' Assessment of Hyde School

[Ursus]

WOW!!  Thank you, Hood-Winked, for your very telling story.  I was a student at Hyde in the 70's, and I so very much appreciate hearing the parents' side of the story.  Thankfully your ordeal did not last longer than a year.

Your little story about the Dorm Captain is a priceless example of "Life At Hyde".  It captures, all too well, the rampant hypocrisy epitomizing the place...

My child's roommate, the dorm captain, ran a tight ship. There was a chronic Dorm thief and this captain punished the group collectively. At one point, accusing my child of being the thief, which was very distressing for my child. Come to find out, at almost the end of the year, they found the thief - the thief was the Dorm Captain.

This disturbing scenario sounds all too familiar, another case of the Hyde pot calling the kettle black.  I've now read many instances of this kind of hypocritical conduct at Hyde.  There seems to be a pattern at that school.

The pattern = Hyde's modus operandi, going on strong for 40+ years. "Truth," and "harmony," are in pretty short supply there...
