Carolina Springs fire?

When you visualize TheWho's graph as the average quality of facilities marketed as programs, including all NATSAP members and everything marketed as a TBS/RTC, putting Tranquility Bay on the left, CCM on the right, ASR in the middle, and a reasonable standard of therapeutic care about eight standard deviations to the right, you begin to understand the true scope of the problem.

Fire destroys dorm at school for troubled teens--June 26th, 2008--

ABBEVILLE, S.C. --Authorities say fire destroyed a dorm at a boarding school for troubled teens in Abbeville County, but no one was injured in the blaze. Carolina Springs Academy Director Elaine Davis says several students returning to the dorm after lunch Wednesday smelled smoke.  Fire officials say the blaze burned for more than two hours and destroyed the dorm at the school which specializes in helping students that aren't reaching their potential because of their behavior.  The school has moved the boys to another dorm on campus. The Red Cross plans to give them bedding, clothes and school supplies.  (Webmaster Note: Carolina Springs Academy is a WWASPS program and confirmedly abusive.  It should be closed, permanently.)

DUE WEST — A fire destroyed a dormitory at a boarding school in Abbeville County, school officials said Wednesday.

The blaze at Carolina Springs Academy in Due West was noticed by students after lunchtime, shortly before 1 p.m. Wednesday, said Tracy Alberson, medical coordinator for the school.

The fire is reported to have completely leveled the entire one story building.

The dormitory housed 57 boys, all of whom were safe from the fire, officials said.

"We did a head count and notified all of the parents about the situation," Alberson said.

Alberson said the boys are being housed in another dormitory on the school's campus.

"The boys are a little devastated. They just lost everything they had," Alberson said. "But we have people that are donating, and local churches. The Red Cross has been helping out tremendously."

Alberson said she believes the fire began in the attic of the building.

Fire officials still were on the scene as of 5:30 p.m. Wednesday trying to determine the cause of the fire.

Abbeville County Fire Department officials could not immediately be reached for comment Wednesday.
