[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are current families concerned?[/quote] Yes, I learned about this last year through the grapevines. In the Spring 2025, I demanded to speak to Russell through his secretary but he would not take my call. I was appalled by the lack of accountability anywhere there and the handling of the security at the school because my child was also being bullied there. The school didn't have correct cameras at all key entrances, didn't hold video long enough, and did make any effort to retrieve past video. I found that the security there was silly and consisted of lazy retired MPD officers. No education on this planet is worth the well being of any kid. Through his secretary and the High School office I made it clear to Russell that if he didn't take my call I would pull my kid from the school at the end of spring and I would call every top 40 college and university in US and one by one speak with the head admissions about what was going on at GDS and the spin game Russell was trying to do to protect the reputation at GDS. Russell got my communication. GDS wants a great reputation so parents keep endlessly paying these outrageous sums and parents keep paying because they FOMO to get their kids in the top 40 schools. It's a sick game and it's twisted on all fronts. Here is the bad news and there will be collateral damage. Russell refused to take my calls even when I threatened with what I would do.I tried multiple times over a few weeks to reach him. Unfortunately, because of Russell's lack of leadership I spent 2 months last year talking to the heads and alerting all the top universities/colleges what had happened at the school, the culture of bullying, Russell's leadership and the fact that two prepataros that go there are still unaccounted for. Again, to parents no education on this planet is worth the well being of any kid. Parents, blindly paying irresponsible GDS with the hopes of top 40 is now going to be even harder because you chose a school with a sick guy at the head of the table educating your kids. What is even more outrageous is that Russel makes +1 Million a year in income from GDS which is why it is a good idea to keep the gravy train going. The more GDS makes the more Ruesell would get rewarded by a clueless Board. The ridiculous part of this is that Russell makes more than the Georgetown University President who has to manage a campus, staff and student body 30x bigger. Seems to me Russell had the best scam going in all of DC. [/quote] Goodness you sound truly unhinged[/quote]
