I had a very disappointing experience with GRYC Youth Camp. The administration and supervisors were extremely unprofessional, particularly toward workers of color, and showed a lack of respect and accountability. In addition, the childcare environment felt unsafe and poorly managed, which is very concerning for a youth camp. I would not recommend this camp to families or staff looking for a safe and supportive environment.

The best place for children to learn. The staff are wonderful. I can't recommend it highly enough.

This school is terrible. Literally on the 3rd day of school they were complaining about my son not standing still for story time, focusing problem, speech problem, doesn't raise his hand to talk etc. Right away they suggested a psychiatrist, implying he has a problem which he was cleared that he does not! They don't have patience to work with that amount of 4 years olds at one time. Isn't that their job? To TEACH! Young girls who call themselves "teachers". They had a problem with my son from the beginning. What 4 year old sits still all day? I pulled him out today. They pretty much imply that they don't want him there. They can all kiss my ass to be honest. And I'm sure they know who wrote this and if there's a problem, they have my number on file! But they know they don't want that problem! ✌

Horrible program for kids. They barely give food to you. There are people who get treated unequaly, which is not fair. You get headaches 24/7.
