| - This review is based on the summer camp-----
First day of camp, as a teacher was entering the gate, she purposely locked us outside of the gate because we didn't have a code. I understand that they don't want strangers going into the facility. But after I introduced to her that we are new to school and don't have the code, I expected some friendly guidance. Instead of letting us in and show us where the classroom is, she closed the gate behind her and locked us outside while other families are also waiting to get in.
After we got in, my kids' teacher was late. While I was waiting for him to show up, no one came to introduce us to the daily routine, such as sign-in, gate code, where to put lunch, backpack, etc..It's not that they don't have help, several teachers were sitting on the bench and did nothing. They acted like they just want me to drop off my kids and leave........
Preschoolers might have fun at the facility but kindergartners and up are going to be bored. I have to say that we are lucky to have a nice teacher: upbeat, nurturing, and funny. However, my kids were under challenged most of the time (mine are easily entertained).The camp is basically a daycare with special visitors once a week.
Classrooms are clean, gate is locked all the time. The shaded outdoor playground is a plus. However most teachers are not "in" the playground with the kids, they mostly stand afar. Not impressed!
Administration were friendly until you give them your money. I don't get the feeling that they are enthusiastic about education. Don't expect a quality education, it's a business establishment.
Finally, no, we won't go back. Nor will I recommend this camp to any of my friends and family. It's an okay place but we've had better.
