Can anyone help me to find out who actually owns Rocklyn Academy. I know that Anne Kossatz is Executive Director and makes most decisions and Darryl Williams, is listed as Director of Admissions. These two are married and involved in the Bar 5 Farms marketing scam Darryl Williams has been formally charged and is currently attemptint to make bail. Anyone who has information on this guy should report it immediately. I think he's a flight risk!!
According to Rocklyn Academy's website, it was founded by Dale Stohn and Robert Shaw. As far as I know, they still own it.
According to Network Solutions, the website is registered to:

Are there any other names that you can give us of staff/faculty that work there (in addition to Darryl Williams and Anne Kossatz)? Rocklyn apparently took their staff page(s) off the website recently.
Dale Stohn and Bob Shaw own Rocklyn, or at least did recently-though who knows if it has been partly sold to Williams and Kossatz. Dale touts herself as a psychotherapist. Dubious-believe me, some of the shit she pulled on my dd would never have been done by a trained, ethical professional. I cannot fnd any actual professional organizations she belongs to. Snake oil sales person. She knows that Darryl Williams is a con. She was told he was not a medical doctor several years ago. So she was either stupid enough to keep him on as admissions director, or she is complicit in the admissions process knowing that parents are being mislead. Whenever there is a problem , or if a parent becomes concerned about an issue-they just pass you off from one person to another, all playing dumb. The financial buck always seems to stop at Darryl though. And if you get too close to the truth, all of a sudden your dd will get sent packing and you can kiss an entire yr of tuition away, whether you have been there 6 weeks or 6 months.
Julia Tkach is apparently the current head of day to day residence life/counselling. No qualifications I can find. Mark Pratt is theGroup Therapist, with master of Divinity degrees. The girls adore him, he tried to make things fun. However, he apparently has years of background in the field, has been at Rocklyn several years and has no clue of the abuses going on there?? Puhleeeze. :ftard: Again, the red flags are so glaring he is choosing to ignore them, or has no clue what he is doing. Not sure if Janet Lawler is still there-she is head of residence.
Most of the staff change so frequently, impossible to be kept track of them, though if your lawyer needs a list of witnesses, its not going to be hard to dig up the past few years. Anyone with half a brain would figure out that watching kids go to the washroom, shower or doing body cavity searches is going to land them in trouble. And anyone with half a brain realizes that there is nothing therapeutic happening at Rocklyn. Its a remote area with few jobs. Most of the girls have more knowledge of the world and life experience than the staff.
Teachers who have been there the longest-Angie Sproule Whitton, Laura Murray, Christine Harrison(who double duties as a chiropractor, and gets to charge the girls for those services).
