★Thou NLThis Mad Science summer camp felt more like a daycare than a structured program. The kids seemed out of control, and grouping ages 6–12 together is way too broad to manage effectively. What really concerned me was what my 6-year-old shared at pickup—he said a staff member (Jill) tried to scare him by saying there was a monster in the restroom, and he ended up having to use the bathroom in the dark. That’s completely unacceptable. This did not feel like a safe or well-supervised environment, and I do not feel comfortable sending my child back.
★★★★★Jessica SwannMr. Day has been great with the kids and they enjoyed Spy Week. I also appreciate the guidance on selecting camps that would work for a half-week attendance that fit my work schedule and the fact that they prorated the cost. Thank you!
★★★★★Rhonda SumpterWe had 4 hands on stations at our school's spring family night. Teachers were knowledgeable and engaging and the students loved the make n take activities. Highly recommend.
★Ada CortezMy son had a very disheartening experience with the presenter at his elementary school. He was called on to volunteer and was spoken to very rudely by the presenter. The presenter asked my son to leave and for another volunteer to be selected in his place. He was brought to tears by the undeserving treatment he received in front of his peers and teachers. This individual clearly does not belong in this line of work.
★★★★★Liza Valentino Costello MaciasMad Science Camp is absolutely amazing! My child gives it a big thumbs up and came home excited every day, sharing fun facts and hands-on experiments.
