★Jane JonesThey tell you to call and check the wait list and then when you do they state their no longer enrolling for the summer I’m confused on how this program works with enrollment bd everytime I call I get told 2 different things. 0/10 would not recommend!
★South ViewDo not send your children here they hire horrible staff members who only care about money. I sent my kids here last year and I quickly took them out because they were constantly coming home complaining about getting bullied. Lack of supervision not safe and secure. The field trips were always rushed and not enjoyable. They need to fire everybody and hire new staff members who enjoy their jobs.😢
★MariahThe program has gone downhill over the years. The staff do not follow through with their policies and show favoritism to staff. They do not care so much about the childrens well being and do not listen when complaints are made. They use older pictures in enrollment forms which is misleading to parents and the current state of the program.
