Former CEDU schools to reopen

Universal Health Services hiring teachers, staff; hopes to open by
Nov. 1
BONNERS FERRY -- Former CEDU teachers and staff are heading back to
work.
Universal Health Services, which bought the therapeutic schools
following CEDU's abrupt closure and bankruptcy this summer, has been
working to reopen the schools since its $10 million bid was approved
by a U.S. bankruptcy court.
UHS, which hopes to reopen by Nov. 1, has been hiring former CEDU
staff, applying for a state license, fixing buildings and recruiting
students. The company plans to open the school under the name Idaho
Educational Services.
"Since the time of the bankruptcy its been a tenuous time for
students and staff alike," said Paul Johnson, executive director of
Boulder Creek Academy. "Most students have gone on to find placement
or have gone on home.
However, Johnson said there are a few students who may return to the
Idaho schools.
"We have been talking with consultants regarding different families
to see if we would be an appropriate place for any children," he
added.
Returning to staffing levels found at the time of the March
bankruptcy will probably be a two-year process, said Tai Kemonick,
IES director of human resources for North Idaho.
Combined staffing at the schools will number 60 to 70 by year's end,
152 by the end of 2006 and 200 by the end of 2007, said Kemonic.
To date, 42 former CEDU staff have been hired by IES, mostly in top
management positions, Kemonick said. The supervisor for the
properties is Bob Deney, the western regional vice president for
UHS. Monday, seven previous Ascent employees were hired.
"They are very much committed to using folks in this community,"
Johnson said of UHS. "They want to have safe programs."
Johnson was named executive director of Boulder Creek Academy, Ruth
McKnight was named executive director of Northwest Academy and
Denise Forbregd was named executive director of the Ascent
Wilderness Program.
Rocky Mountain Academy will remain closed for about a year while
staff research the appropriate market niche, said Doug McKnight,
director of business operations, who is helping get the schools
licensed.
"We've already gotten calls from parents who had this crisis going
on. It's an immediate enrollment," Forbregd said of Ascent.
While IES staff expect Ascent to open between Oct. 17 and Nov. 1,
the other two programs are tentatively set to open Nov. 1.
Enrollment will grow slowly: Boulder Creek Academy will begin with
four students, with three or four students added per month. The
academy should have 42 enrolled by the end of 2006.
Northwest Academy should open with four students in November and by
the end of 2006 enrollment should reach 51 students. Ascent is
projected to begin in October with seven, and end 2006 with 31.
"Its definitely great news," Boundary County economic development
coordinator Robin Ponsness said. "It's going to be great for our
local economy to have it back up and running. These jobs are
important because they're professional jobs."
Once the schools open again, Johnson hopes for one more positive
change -- he wants a closer connection with the community. He
envisions involvement in community service projects that directly
affect and help those in need.

Well, that's some FUCKED UP news. Putting the foxes back in the hen house.
What are they thinking? "Hey, I've got an idea. Let's hire some child abusers to staff our new BM Warehouse!"
It never ceases to amaze me...
-
You've got to figure some of it had to happen. The Idaho schools were not hard core BM warehouses - certainly nothing approaching WWASPS. And some of their staff really did try to get it right. Toward the last months especially, a lot fell apart so there was not too much left. Ascent though, at least as "CI", now to be "AI" (Ascent Interventions") was quite BM-oriented, with make-work assignments (pick up wood chips, etc) till you got "it" -- whatever "it" was.
Other announcements said Ascent would open first, and RMA would not open at least for a while, in part because of negatives associated with the name. BUT - the same announcement said they expected the programs to be much as they were before.
While I respect a lot of the good things they have done, some EdCons are what should be embarrassingly pleased to be able to send more students to what are at best now start-up programs with somewhat dated approaches.
-
Anyone know if RMA is going to stay in naples, or if they are going to move back to their old stomping grounds at the cow creek campus?
-
Yay! Cedu's back!
Y'all little bitches couldn't keep us down. We're back to take your kids and mindfuck 'em one by one. Can't stop us now hahaha!
-
I hope that with this new opening, these schools can finally SPECIALIZE in what they should have been the whole time and that is helping kids in crisis! Another thought, have any of you wondered just how the school would look with 4 students. Granted, I haven't been on the BCA campus since '99 but how I remember it, was much to big for just 4 students! HOW WEIRD! And they will only add 3-4 per month! What if everyone hates each other, I guess they won't have to worry about breaking bans though! :grin:
-
Whatever. Ruth McKnight is a wonderful woman. Of all the things that happened to me when I was there, she was one of the few kind individuals. She was like my fucking grandmother for christ's sake! I trust this woman to do the right thing with these schools. I couldn't think of a better person to run NWA than Ruth McKnight. I spoke with her about 2 weeks ago and things are moving slowly, but if anyone can do it Ruth can. I'll back her, and only her, up in this whole fight. You have beef with Ruth McKnight, you have beef with me god damnit!
-
I only have beef with your mom for not shaving that hairy ass cooch of hers before I dropped by last night.

OOOOOHHHHHH! That one was rough. Come up with that one all by yourself, or did my mom help you out?
-
Well since you are so tight with Ruth, how's the homie Joe doing?
-

Joe who?
-
Guess you're not so tight with her huh?
-
What the hell are you taking about?
-
It's very simple! You said you were so close with Ruth McKnight that she was like a grandmother to you right? Why don't you know who Joe is? I am not gonna put him out on front street if you have no idea who he is. I just figured anyone that was so close with her, would know that part of her life.
-
Whatever man. Is Joe her son? How the hell should I know who Joe is? Joe could be anyone you fuck. So stop trying to prove me wrong or something. If Joe is her son, I have no idea how he's doing. I don't make a habit of talking about her son when we talk. If he's doing bad, as I assume you want me to say, what's your damn point! That if her son is doing shitty that she's a bad person. Maybe you should spell out what the fuck you mean instead of playing games you loser!
-
WOW! Somewhere in your obviously young years, something happened that made you oh so bitter! Why would I ask how someone is doing if I already knew how they were doing? What kind of sense does that make? But in your case, it seems as though what makes the most sense makes none at all in your mind, so that is a tremendous battle for those who have to deal with you day after day. Poor people. Anyway. I am glad that I gave you a reason to get your aggression out. Hope the rest of your day goes well.
By the way, I don't need to prove you wrong. You just DEEMED yourself inconsolable. That's worse.

No, obviously I needed your Mom's help to come up with that one. Wouldn't have been any cooch to crack on without your Mom's help. And from now on you'll address me as "Dad".

What the fuck are you talking about! You're trying to tell me you were being sincere with your question about Joe? Bullshit! You weren't really asking how he was doing. You were trying to disprove my relationship status with Ruth McKnight. You wouldn't tell me who Joe was. I call bullshit on your whole comment. In answer to your question about "Why would I ask how someone is doing if I already knew"...and my answer is simple: to be an asshole. That's what you are, an asshole. Your whole point of posting what you did was to try to prove that I was not close with this woman. So if that's how you're gonna play it, FUCK YOU!
-
Dude, obviously you're not close with her at all, or you wouldn't get so butt hurt about a simple question. You really do have some serious hostility problems my man...should probably work on that if you want to be part of the world. Otherwise just shut up and sit by yourself in your room.
-
It's not that I'm hurt by the question at all. I'm not hurt by anything he said. What does piss me off though is the indirect question. Why not say what you mean. Don't skirt around the issue and don't play games. As far as an anger problem, yup, I'm an angry dude. So what? It's not like I act like this when I'm out in the real world ya know. I don't go around telling people to fuck off, but the glory of the internet allows me to do so. I simply take full advantage of this, that's all.
-
Nah man, I don't believe you. No one is "just angry on the internet". I'm an angry motherfucker myself. When people talk some bullshit to me on these boards, I lash out at them. But I'm not gonna pretend that's the miracle way for me to get all my aggression out. Everyday I encounter someone I just want to kill. And every few days I get so angry with someone that I just make them feel like shit. And I really can't go for long without just snapping and fucking someone up. Just how it is I guess.
I don't really have a problem with you man, you seem alright to me. I was just standing up for 'if you want to know' because hey, she's a pretty cool chick.
-
And she probably did genuinely want to know about Joe. Just trying to play games and fuck with people? Not really her style...
-
Fuck that, did you read those posts?! Did you sense the scarcasim in them? I sure as fuck did!
-
Of course I read the posts. There's a thin line between 'angry' and 'bitter'. I think you're just a bitter person and anytime you think someone is challenging you, even the least bit, you gotta get all fired up. I didn't sense any sarcasm whatsoever, but then again, I'm not bitter. Maybe you should be attacking the person who talked shit on your Mom instead...?
-
but see that's a joke, what the other person said wasn't. There's a difference. I am bitter. I don't like it when people challenge me. So what!
But whatever, this is going nowhere. I don't give a shit what you think. You want an example of being bitter, here: Fuck you. Grow some balls. Do what you feel and feel what you do. At least I'm being honest, asshole.
-
That's not bitter, that's just you telling me that you're just a weak sack of shit. But hey, however you wanna play it works for me.
-
I'll play the insult game. Let's see here...fuck you just about covers all the bases. Thanks for the entertainment though.
-
Nah man the pleasure's all mine.

Hey! Thanks! I am a cool chick! Anyway. No one was fucking with you dude. Stop being so paranoid. Not EVERYONE is out to piss you off! Now if you want to believe that, that is your choice. Just wanted to let you know.
-
you're not a cool chick, you're a piece of shit!
-
Thank you for sharing that!
-
what we need is more of them raps.
they make us calm.
thank god CEDU will be opening again so maybe eventually if everyone is conditioned...we can all talk honestly like this posting.
I love what CEDU taught for communication.
Isn't ANYONE dishonest again after cedu?
yo, you people know what i'm talking about.
i'll be posting my disclosures next in an effort to reach out to you...that's how I won't be lonely anymore.

HA HA HA HA! :lol: Now THAT is funny!
