Tammy is the BEST!! If I could give her 10 stars, I would!!!…read more Tammy definitely has a wealth of knowledge and experience. She is professional, personable, and easy to work with. I hired Tammy after exhausting from dealing with so many issues and fighting with the teachers and schools to get my daughter the support she needed. Hiring Tammy was my final straw and only the option I had in order to negotiate with the school district. However, Tammy did not disappoint me. She worked tirelessly and put a lot of efforts helping my daughter to get what she needed. I can see a big difference in my child after working with Tammy. Now, my daughter does better in so many ways and she is thriving in school so I believe hiring Tammy is priceless. It's well worth the money! Without a doubt, I would rehire Tammy again if needed and strongly recommend her services to anyone.

Update on my previous review for Dr. Cyra. My first review…read morewas from our experience in helping my son navigate the ARD and Special Education process at Frisco ISD. Dr. Cyra was indispensable in helping us get through that process, and based part on her efforts, my son graduated and is now moving onto college at University of North Texas. He picked that school partly based on the reputation of how they treated students with disabilities. IMHO, this reputation is unfounded. Our experience with UNT has been exhausting. The process to get into the system as a disabled student was relatively easy. From there it has not been easy. It seems like the Office of Disability Access exists solely to mitigate civil rights complaints, and they appear to do the absolute minimum in a bureaucratic manner that is more befitting a trip to the DMV with apparently no consideration that they are dealing with students that have disabilities and are already starting off at a disadvantage. Fortunately, our son has an advocate in Dr. Cyra. Starting just before school and extending into the first part of my son's first semester, she was able rectify the situation. Through experience and expertise she was able to get the Office of Disability Access focus on our son's needs and treat him like a human being rather that just another student that they were required to help because of Federal Law. If you have a student with disabilities that is struggling to get through the system, Dr. Cyra is your guiding light. Our son would be lost in the system without her.

Becky Lowery Freshman Center as the name suggests is a brand new addition to Allen schools. Since…read morethe old, much smaller Lowery school was not serving the needs of 9th graders in Allen ISD, the city built this new building right behind it. This addition was much needed. Since Allen High School starts from 10th grade, they had the Freshman's in a separate school. Last week, I had the chance to checkout this new school for my niece's Allen District Honor Choir performance being held at the auditorium. The auditorium was spacious with comfortable seats, high quality speakers and large stage area. We thoroughly enjoyed the performance by these talented kids and recognized their effort, dedication. I'm glad to be a resident of Allen City and am looking forward to my son attending these top rated schools with state of the art amenities, great extracurricular programs, and high academics.

The staff and therapists are amazing - I couldn't recommend them any higher.

I purchase a lot weekly and almost shop daily because of the quality and prices of the items. Their atmosphere is very energetic and staff are amazing!! Today was not a good day may I say!!!! The fact that there are no fitting rooms makes it impossible to try on clothes so I have to exchange the items that do not fit me in exchange for something else and I always end up paying more than what I returned. WELL, the lady told me with a negative tone that I had three days to return my items when in fact I'm told that it's 3 days because I return items regularly. I told her that that is not what I've been told and with a firm voice she told me.."well I'm telling you that YOU have 3 days, ok"; now I was embarrassed and felt bad. I mentioned to my cashier that if they had fitting rooms I would not return clothing items. I don't believe that I want to shop at a place where I am treated poorly. First bad experience and I hope the manager reads this review. I will miss Ms. Shay and Mr. John :(

The receptionist called me this morning and informed me that my child's speech therapy session was…read morecanceled because the therapist was out. I said okay and asked whether they could reschedule him for another day during the week. She told me there was availability for OT tomorrow at 12:00 PM. Then, today at 12:11 PM, I received a call asking if I was coming to the appointment. I explained that they had canceled on me. Despite that, they still charged me a $100 no-show fee. What a scam. 1. This place seems heavily focused on charging fees. They charge a $100 no-show fee if you are just 8 minutes late. They conveniently call you right after the 8-minute mark and phrase it as a "reminder." 2. If you are even 5 minutes late picking up your child, they charge you additional fees. Meanwhile, their therapists are frequently more than 5 minutes late themselves. They have a predatory fee structure, and the management appears incompetent. Instead of properly investigating issues and improving their processes, they simply side with the receptionist.

We are the grandparents of one of the students at Daffodils and have found the administrative…read morepersonnel and teachers to be warm and compassionate people. Our experience has been extremely pleasing. In addition to our grandson having been taught effective socialization skillsets and being prepared educationally to proceed to kindergarten, it is gratifying to think that these people truly do care for the little lives entrusted to them and that they go the extra mile. A case in point...recently our grandson unfortunately was not able to attend the "graduation" ceremony the school was having. With no prompting from our grandson's father, when he went to school the following Monday, the school personnel took the time to dress him up in his cap and gown, take pictures in front of the graduation backdrops, and then sent those pictures to our son for future reference and memories. Our sincere appreciation goes out to those involved in doing so. From our experience, and there have been others, we would highly recommend Daffodils Preschool.
