Riot at IVY RIDGE - 15 arrested

[chasingdogma]

At ivy ridge there are always staff members within site of you. Most windows are fenced in, all are protected by lasers that trigger an alarm throughout the entire building. Within a minute or two they know exactly who is gone.

:flame: This is absolute CRAP!  Have you ever gone to this school and spent some time talking with staff?  They are more than willing to let anyone tour. Stop making crap up until you see it for yourself. Let's stop pointing fingers and look at what this school has done for the community. Employing over 100 people. Not to mention the lives that have been changed. Cult? You would only know if you were really in one I guess. It sounds like some of you have more time on your hands than you need.  Go look up the definition of CULT, then take a visit to Ivy Ridge. You will be shocked at how very wrong you are. Take accountability and grow up. No one cares when another 16 year old is buried due to lack of supervision and being with the wrong crowd. For once there are people out there who care, look what happens to those people. They are talked about and turned into CULT members. Get Real!

Great! THis is why you were in a program. You still need to be in one by the sounds of it. You get what you put in, you got nothing because, you did not put anything in.

How true, how true. Here's a partial list of kids burried due to lack of supervision of the wrong crowd. More's the sorrow that, instead of protecting them, their own parents forced them to associate w/ these brutal, sadistic animals.

8:30 AM News Update - Parent Of Ivy Ridge Student Denied Access To Records

http://www.newswatch50.com/news/local/s ... E21E391469



PARENT OF IVY RIDGE STUDENT DENIED ACCESS TO RECORDS


 

At least one parent is unhappy with the way the administration handled an uprising at Ivy Ridge.

9 students were arrested and Ivy Ridge expelled 40 students in the wake of what was described as a 'riot' at the Ogdensburg school. A parent of a student in the program told NewsWatch50 that after spending more than 20-thousand dollars on the program she is being refused transcripts and records of her child's performance and treatment.

She has gone to the State Attorney General in an effort to get the records released.

All but one student has been released from jail.

Ivy Ridge Academy Investigated By Attorney General


The Ivy Ridge Academy in Ogdensburg is under investigation by the State Attorney General for issuing diplomas that are ?essentially worthless?.

The Academy is not currently accredited by any agency or the State to issue diplomas. School officials told the Daily Courier in Ogdensburg that private, non-public schools such as the Academy are not required to hold accreditation to operate. School officials deny any wrongdoing and are working with the A.G.?s office to address concerns. The school has also agreed to suspend issuing diplomas until it obtains permission to issue State-approved ones.

Students currently enrolled are being asked to transfer credits earned there to their schools of origin. If the school accepts the credits from the Academy, they can be awarded a diploma from their home school.

St. Lawrence County District Attorney Gary Miles told the Daily Courier that the A.G.?s office has been in contact with him and expects to wrap up the investigation soon. The Academy has said it will comply with any conditions set by the A.G.?s office and the State Education Department.

Does anyone have a copy of the contract that the parents sign for Ivy Ridge?  If so, could you tell us what it says in it, verbatim, about the education and the "diplomas" that the children can earn.  Also, could you give us the exact verbiage on the contract the parents sign about the accredidation of the school?

with the whole TB holding kids down until they scream in agony... I think im going to diagree with you i met a few girls that transferred from TB to CSA and said that they wanted to go back to TB so they wrote their mom and they were transferred back and when they came in there were no markings on them to indicate any abuse and they never said anything about it. we, at CSA, are very observant when new girls come in so we would have asked but they were fine and if it was so bad why would they want to go back so bad...
