BANK SEEKS TO FORECLOSE ON HIDDEN LAKE PROPERTY

what if I buy the property, and turn it into a wildlife conservation center or turn it into a residential subdivision or maybe mountain retreat? or maybe i'll buy part of the land and turn that area into a hedonist's retreat - strip club, bar, spa w/asian massage...etc. i wonder how HLA would be able to function with that sort of thing being operated on lower left field...or where the SAC used to be.
bucci is going to be surprised when he sees me at the auction..... especially surprised that one of the lowly potheads his institution tried to brainwash now has the power and capital to squash his entire enterprise with a single bid, without even scratching the surface of his [potheads] budget. For me, buying that land is like exxon buying a new drill bit, or cisco buying a new server.

I think what you people are doing is terrible. I have a child there now and am very pleased with the progress she has made. The counselors are great and whether licensed or not, that is not my concern. They are effective and truly care about their work. The financial workings of the school are their own and not my concern. i just hope they can weather this storm because I think they do a tremendous service despite what a lot of you are saying. I would like you to get a life and leave these people alone. Quit living in the past and just once make an attempt to rid yourselves of your bitterness and hatered.

Well, that didn't take long. Sir or Madame sycophant, if you are not one of Buccellato's "goons", sadly for your child you are uninformed and naive. Buccellato cares nothing for your child or anyone elses, and he certainly does not care about the counselors. You are a number and only a number and your child is less than that in Buccellato's eyes.

you say you dont care about HLA's finances?
maybe you should consider that you are getting about a dollars worth of service for every twenty dollars you give them?
do you realize your kid will be back to their old ways the day he/she gets out? you're just going to have an illusion that the kid's doing OK, because theres a hidden curriculum at HLA: how to not get caught. if you consider a criminal education, like one you can get in prison, valuable, then i guess you are getting a decent return for your money.
do you realize that you can buy your kid into NYU or any Ivy League school regardless of your kids behavior for the amount of money you have spent on HLA - including the hidden fees like ed-consultants*** activity fees, grossly overpriced toiletries, plane tickets...etc? a year of parties at one of those schools and they'll be so sick of "misbehaving" that they'll turn into an Obama-type?
***If you didnt need an ed-consultant, your going to need one to get your kid out of HLA. Hidden lake holds on to their students for dear life. it's easier to keep kids there than find new ones to admit, and kids that have gone through the program are more cost-effective to look after - putting a big price tag on retention. when your kids about to graduate, they will try to keep them postgrad. they will use any kind of leverage they have to keep them there. Most respectable private schools around the country have stopped taking HLA kids, thanks to uniformly unchanged bad apples that come out of there. further, the counselors will write negative letters to your prospective schools about your kid to decrease your kid's chances of getting in. WHY? because they get paid commission for every kid in their peer group that they keep postgrad. The ed-consultants also get paid commission and/or favors (look up leslie goldberg in the court docs) for kids they retain at HLA after grad, so have fun finding an ed consultant that wont take your money and stick you with HLA for another year or two anyway.
