DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR CHILDREN! They talk a big game but when it comes down to it, they over promise and under deliver. I had my 8 year old daughter and 3 year old son attending there for six months. They claimed they would have my daughter do her homework there before she was allowed to play. She merely told them she forgot her homework for nearly everyday whilst it was sitting in her backpack and apparently that was good enough. They let her just play everyday during her time in their after school program and didn't even care to discuss with us that she NEVER had her homework. She was helped with no homework and taught nothing. We pulled her out so we would enough time to do her homework with her cause they wouldn't. Then we have my 3 year old son whom was downgraded to half days because they couldn't manage to get him under control. Their idea of a time out is apparently having the child follow a teacher around till they miraculously act right. I guess no one told them a time out was a deprivation of stimulation and not a teacher student one on one field trip. Repeated one on one attention for a misbehaving child is rewarding their behavior with additional attention and reinforcing the behavior rather than removing stimuli to allow the child to reflect and self correct. Moreover, changing him to half days as an answer to the behavior THEY reinforced was only further reward to reinforce his misbehaviour. Not to mention half days are still FULL price. During my last conversation with them Felicia suggested the pharmaceutical intervention in the form of a compound consisting of four different amphetamines by the name of adderall as a step in the right direction for my 3 year old son whom they failed miserably at even watching during the day let alone teaching him anything. Thanks for exacerbating my toddlers negative behavior high achievers.
First off, there is no curriculum to speak of. Although they make a big fuss over being a Texas Rising Star school, it's a pretty empty honor. Second, meals are not great. They seem so be mostly franks and beans and pizza. The kids get a lot of french fries and tater tots but no green vegetables at all. They do get fruit, so the meals do meet the state standards, but that's all. Lastly, although they said that they are a non-profit enterprise, they somehow manage to charge just slightly less than our previous definitely-for-profit and definitely not cheap day care. It is not a bad place and I, obviously, believe they do care well for the children entrusted to them. Sure, I disagree with some choices and believe they could do better, but what parent doesn't? I do trust them with my kids, so I do think it's one of the better choices in the area, just not the best.
