So, axfoley is someone who has been invited back for round two of the circus. That much we can discern.

This thread is painful and hilarious at the same time. I didn't think Team Hoyt could do any worse than they did the year I was there, but my goodness, they have!

The end of year awards ceremony last year was bad enough, but team Hoyt seemed to have topped it this year with their derogatory comments made about their 'teacher of the year!" It only goes to show how thoughtless the older Hoyt is.

I hope and pray that new teachers thinking of going to Shabaka make a better decision.

Threads about Shabaka dont get deleted when things become interesting. They get deleted because when people such as myself come to dispell some of the intentional misinformation passed around, a good number of Shabakas detractors (not all) have historically become very nasty and made things very personal. It has happened almost every time.

Not to say that its perfect or that criticism cant be made. But from the time I started with them and when they started with KFU in October 2008 untik I left for family reasons last year, I noticed that when teachers decided they didnt like Shabaka, the level of anger they held was shocking to me and others who enjoyed their time there.

Like I said, criticisms can be made. But the lack od honesty on the part of some former teachers does sort of prove my theory that many of them are simply miserable people. I cant speak of Shabaka after I left last summer, but for 2008-2012 I can say with confidenxe that much of what was posted here against them was the result of grown adults telling blatsnt, ridiculous lies. Not sure about this year.

P.s. I apologize for all the typos but I have a new mobike and I am not used to the keypad.

P.p.s. stop worrying about what the brothers do on their weekends and focus on the job. My god some of this focus on them personally is just childish.

Whilst I appreciate Chthon's unbiased, factual accounts of events that he was neither part of nor had any direct knowledge of, the fact still remains that even though the "grown adults telling lies" have since departed, the problems still remain.

Why oh why does Shabaka seem to get so many "grown adults telling lies" year after year?
