This place has gone from great to disgusting and unsafe over the past couple of years. Management…read morehas turned over a couple of times since then and teacher staff is now a revolving door. We just pulled our daughter out of there because they aren't even pretending to apply a curriculum for pre-k. They're babysitters, now, and not even very good ones at that. Most recently, we found soiled clothing stuffed into her backpack with her other clothing, sheet, and blanket. Not in a bag, just right into her backpack which now is soaked with urine. My four-year-old doesn't often have accidents, but good lord, what lazy, thoughtless person thought this was ok? During the pandemic, staff was supposed to be masked. Almost daily, either on dropoff or pickup, there were staff seen in classrooms or in the office (the part parents and kids walk though) either completely without a mask or the mask pulled down. Every time I brought it up, I was told that they'd "mention it in a staff meeting" or confirm that yes, it is their policy for staff to mask up. Regardless of your views on masking, the fact that they just didn't enforce their own policies that are supposed to be in place for safety, is unacceptable. The owner, Tom, also spread misinformation during the pandemic regarding masks and other preventive measures via signage posted at the center and at the summer camp location. This place started going down hill quickly when the director (a couple of directors ago, I think) left. Andrea was the last good one, but it was clear that she was being hamstrung from actually doing anything good there. I know it's tough finding a child care center these days, but please, if you have the option, look elsewhere. I'm sure there are other places just as bad or worse, but I no longer trust this place to keep my child safe and certainly not to prepare her for kindergarten. The dozen or teachers who have cycled through that room in the past few months have been uninterested in getting to know the kids, have completely ignored kids who clearly needed attention, were downright mean to kids (witnessed during dropoff on numerous occasions). If you can help it, please trust your children to another center. Also, the five star review that this is updating was written with the promise of a starbucks giftcard. I'm not sure how many other positive reviews are genuine.

Our son started here at the beginning of COVID and this facility has been stellar. The safety…read moreprotocols they have in place have limited exposures when they have happened and the staff has been very open and helpful. On top of that, the education is INCREDIBLE. Our son is almost two and he is challenged and engaged every day. They engage in role plays, music, art, unstructured play, and imagination time. The meals are varied so the kids get a lot of exposure to different foods. There is an app you can use to communicate with teachers and admin and you can see a daily report to monitor food, diaper changes, sleep, and activities, along with photos and videos. Whenever someone compliments our son's development, we always say that his daycare is doing a great job raising him ;) The staff are amazing and so dedicated. The tuition cost is high but it is worth every cent. I would strongly recommend KinderCare in Frederickson for anyone with kids but we have just adored the two classrooms he's been a part of so far.

Highly recommend this daycare for your little ones. The team has provided a safe space that allows…read morechildren to learn and grow. I love hearing about all the new things my kids are learning.

emerald ridge is honestly the worst high school in the Puyallup school district, I personally would…read morenever send my kid here, they have no respect for you as a person, they expect you to make school your entire life. All the security guards and office staff are so focused on getting kids in trouble, and they never bother to help you even if you ask for help. The staff makes the school dreadful, and so many kids don't go to school just cause of the way they treat them. Wouldn't recommend.

0 fucking stars, this school is the biggest piece of shit that i have ever seen in my lifetime,…read morebiggest waste of space to ever be put on this floating rock, the security staff are SO SO SO narcissistic and genuinely dumb in every way possible, currently at the time of this review there is ONE men's bathroom open, with over 1000 students, that is ridiculous, the security is so rude and they assume everything out of everyone, and this school uses all of their resources to catch kids vaping/smoking in the bathrooms, instead of trying to help kids that need help, this school is genuinely the worst school that i have EVER attended or seen anywhere, some of the teachers are nice and understanding but the majority of them will not let you use the bathroom, or will not let you use your phone for an emergency, all of the staff at this school is corrupt with power and needs to be dealt with, fix your fucking bathrooms er..

They make kids more late by holding them up at an attendence line. No matter how early you bring your kids, your child will be late because they will literally hold your kids up for a half hour writing up an attendence slip. And my child is expected to walk a half an hour to school in whatever weather it is outside cause theres no school bus because we live to close to the school. I wouldnt be so upset if my daughter was actually learning something in cause but so far the only thing I is stuff that she already learn from her previous her previous school.

So, I am a student in the Bethel School District, I have been since my family moved to the Spanaway…read morearea when I was only 7. I finished 1st grade here and the rest of the grade levels so far except 12th grade, and to be honest, I would have to say; overall the Bethel School District is a very bad one, often times the schools don't get ran well and there's also the issue of teachers, security people, assistant principals, principals, etc. Often times nothing good comes out of it, or they just put too much pressure on students, sometimes without even being kind about it. I have an IEP and have been in resource classes since elementary, and I often have gotten treated badly by teachers, other staff, and students alike. In elementary, it was sometimes okay with teachers but they didnt exactly say things as well as they should have, and students at school used to be extremely mean to me in school around that time and often times they still are. In elementary, they were rude to me and they said things like that I was gross, weird, etc. I often was not treated well, by the older kids and not by the younger kids. After 6th grade, it seemed ok at first but it really wasn't. I got so much shit from people about how I was friends with someone who was a guy who hung out with me a lot and ended up developing a crush on me, and people often made fun of me for it and teased me, also some people just were rude to me for no reason, the uniform was shitty (I went to cedarcrest for junior high- 7th-9th grade), i often was never noticed by some people but teachers and other adults often just did not understand me, were rude to me or went about things the wrong way. 10th-12th grade I have been at SLHS, and I hate it. The school is really not very good overall, if you count how it is ran, many of the staff, students, how courses are ran, the special ed department, funding, etc........ also there is the issue of transportation, and how that is the school I have to go to by rules since that's how it is with the boundaries and that angers me so much. I have been miserable at SLHS the whole time I have been there all or most of the time. I just can't get any respect and trust there and I just can't get a break!! If I am not careful, I could get sent to the kind of special education or education classes for people with behavior issues, and yet they don't really look into or care about WHY they have behavior issues and talk to the kids about it. Ms. Shenk is one of the staff there and she can be extremely hard to relate to and not only that she can be so very strict and hard on people even when you didn't do much of anything wrong. No wonder I have always hated school, I swear, it is just rediculous how everything (or almost everything) has went wrong, being in this school district as a student. And at my high school, SLHS, the staff often act like the school is so great but it is REALLY not. All or most of it is because of some good test score improvements, so really it might seem like it makes it a good school and it is a good achievement but it does not make it a good school. A good school helps people out, when they can, and does not just use tough love or rudeness on people when they are having problems or acting out or whatever it may be. And it definitely does not act like the student is the only one in the wrong. I am currently trying to get transferred into Bethel, and it is extremely hard... and it is so lame, it is barely even a mile farther away from my neighborhood/house than SLHS is and SLHS is 2.2 miles away, and really it shouldn't be so difficult for something so important. Education is a right, not a privelidge and it should provide options and choices. What happened to failure is not an option? Anyway, I will always be frustrated about it and remember the bad, but seriously, if the staff and other school or school district officials would just grow up and be more kind and understanding... it could help so much.
