Ridge Creek School experiencing well deserved success

--- Quote from: "RobertBruce" ---
--- Quote ---If you started a business (or restarted an old business, it would be foolish to go out and hire expensive heads for all of your departments until you knew what the present demand was for your product. The owner(s) typically stand in as heads of all the departments until the business gets established. Once the business takes off and begins to grow the owner starts to take a step back and he/she hires people to take on his previous roles.
As these new people are hired in 2011 Len will be able to take a back seat to the day to day operations and focus more on growing his business from a more global perspective.

And what you keep carefully avoiding is the fact that these positions were already filled. RC has been around for years, simply because it was expanded due to the closure of HLA does not mean the positions simply disappeared. The positions and people filling them were already in place.
Once again, refilling other people's old positions is not a sign of growth.

Good point, RB. Whooter keeps lying about it, but you hold his feet to the fire.
Whooter:
--- Quote from: "RobertBruce" ---HLA eventually was subject to the same inspections and oversight. Of course this was only after we forced it on to Buchi.
--- Quote ---I think what you are describing occurred at HLA. I think the improvements have been difficult for the school as they grow but the transparency has benefited the children and the school alike.

So then what are you basing this on Whooter? How could you possibly know?

If you read here on fornits about all the problems that HLA had. lawsuits etc. and compare that with the detail we are now seeing coming out of the ORS Reports from the oversight provided by DHS it is easy to see that RCS is not anything like its former self.
The DHS is visiting and speaking with the students and there is no evidence of abuse by any staff members or brainwashing, torture or thought control. We are seeing the normal problems that at-risk teens bring to a residential program (atleast that seems to be the view of DHS since the school is growing under their supervision).

Its forced on everyone, Bruce. How many schools/programs walk into the DHS office and ask for oversight for their business? lol

Good point Whooter. As we all know all of these programs are abusive, so none of them want regulation or oversite. As we all know it only makes it harder for them to get away with things. Hence why they all seek to self regulate through organizations like NATSAP.

HLA operated for almost 12 years before things really started to hit the fan. Also keeping in mind that RC still employs the same tactic off sending kids out into the woods whenever a major incident occurs. A kid who isn't around can't talk to DHS. Furthermore there is nothing in the reports that detail the mental and emotional abuse these kids go through.

If the DHS want to speak to a child they will insist that the child be present or ask that he/she be brought back from wilderness to be interviewed. The DHS does not care about people schedules or the inconvenience they impose upon people or schools. They are there to focus on the children.

Exactly, if the kids say they have been abused then it would be in DHS's reports. So far DHS has not reported any abuse occurring at RCS so we have to conclude that non occurs there.
