I doubt they are upper level kids. They are probably Tranquility Bay transplants tho. Remember - this (Gulf Coast Academy; aka Eagle Point; aka Bethel boys home) is where Jay Kay said they were moving the TB kids to, in that letter everyone got so excited about.
If they do get sent back to Tranquility Bay, it will probably be to a situation more like High Impact. I have thought that this was most likely what the change was about - using TB as a High Impact kind of facility.
If I'm right, then any kid sent there is in for some horribly brutal treatment.
I hope these kids manage to get into a court system that will protect their rights as US citizens and demand they remain in the states; and in the care of professionals with an education and credentials; in other words, not any program.
