White Hat Rejects Allegations it Misreported Life Skills Centers Attendance Records

http://www.scrippsnews.com/node/37595

In response to an inquiry from Scripss Howard News Service about absenteeism at its Life Skills Centers in Ohio, White Hat Management Company issued a statement denying allegations that the company had improperly misreported attendance records. The response stated in part "Our policies require written documentation for excused absences and we comply with all applicable sections of the Ohio Revised Code. We will not dignify allegations made in interviews with 'former employees,' 'former teachers' and 'former students' since we have not been offered transcripts of such interviews. We find offensive any implication that White Hat Management, the management company for Life Skills Centers, has not complied with reporting and legal requirements.”
