Love the administration, people, vibes, all of it. They helped me when i was little and its a blessing to be able to help others who need it. My aunt worked for BGC in Florida for 15 years and I know I honor her by giving back the way she gave to me.

I am writing this review as a concerned parent regarding how a safety incident involving my first-grade son was handled at the Boys & Girls Club program at Subaru Elementary. On Tuesday, April 21st, my son was knocked down by an older student who is several grades above him during after-school program time. He came home with a scraped knee and reported that after the incident, the student spoke to him in a disrespectful way, telling him “Don’t speak” and “That’s what I thought,” and also threatened to slam him to the floor. After this happened, my son became upset, isolated himself, and cried because he felt scared and embarrassed in front of other children. I reported the incident immediately, but several days passed without meaningful action being taken. I was told the situation had not yet been addressed and that staff were busy with other matters. There were delays in addressing the situation, and I was concerned about the lack of urgency given that this involved physical contact, verbal threats, and a younger child being involved with an older student. As a parent, my biggest concern is safety and proper supervision. Incidents involving physical harm and threats should be handled quickly and seriously, especially when younger children are involved. I hope leadership reviews how this situation was handled and ensures that future safety concerns are addressed promptly and professionally so that all children feel safe and protected.

Ms Adriana needs to accounted for the unprofessionalism. When we kindly ask on the phone about her not doing. It again for very defensive. Corporate please contact. I'm fully disabled so things already are complicated. Can we atleast train them to be professional?! It's very disrespectful in front of my children instead of checking the account or just calling.(uS) The parents. Caused a huge embarrassment for my son and daughter out of misinformation she was wrong about. When she could do just check account. Very disappointed 😞
