First, there are two Southwest University one in El Paso Texas and one in Kenner Louisiana So,…read morereading the review make sure your talking about the right school. Now, If your talking about Southwest University in Kenner Louisiana. I received my Master and Doctoral in Occupational Safety and Health from 1990 through 1997. The President of the school Dr. Gracie Lee is out standing. The admission staff is wonderful (Very helpful and quick to assist). This University is not for everyone and It's not easy. If you work hard and make the time, you can archive your degree. I don't have my degrees hinging on the wall (decoration) the knowledge, I gain is worth more then that. Please don't take the words from me or anyone else, check it out for your self. (http://southwest.edu/studentservices/consumer_information.asp) Good luck,

Excellent school and programs. Teachers that teach for the vocation not a job…read more My issue is the school yard. It's black top. The students need grass. I know mommas complain about grass stains and dirt stains. But it's better than blood stains. Kids get rough. Kids fall down. Black top is unforgiving. There could be traumatic brain injuries and worse. I know the playground doubles as a parking lot for mass and that's where a lot of funds come in but regardless. Total insanity starts in the summer. They have softball leagues playing on the hard black top. Not cabbage ball. Softball. With aluminum bats and gloves. So you have a relatively hard ball coming off a metal bat bouncing off black top. Players diving and sliding on black top. That's a recipe for disaster. If a kid falls on his/her knees that's it. A bum knee for decades and knee replacement eventually. Believe it. It would be idea if the school laid down a layer of a foot or two of soil and grow grass. Sure mommas won't like the grass stains and church goers won't like parking on often times wet grass but still. It's a lot better than leaving your kids running around and falling down on hard blacktop.

This daycare center is absolutely HORRID. There isn't enough food for the children staying there…read more(unless it's an infant, in which the parent brings the formula), the children don't get changed and are forced to take three hour naps. When asked for juice or water, they are refused. There are no activities or fun things to do with the kids. Employees only have the children seated and are told to 'shut up' and watch TV. Outside time is minimal and they can have up to 35 kids out in the rusty rug-covered dirt playground with only one supervisor attending to the children. Children are constantly yelled at and never learn a thing. The teacher: student ratio is absurd. The daycare center refuses to hire any more employees and when State Licensing visits, are lying about certain employees who don't have their background checked just because the owner doesn't want to spend the money. There are no snacks for the children. According to the list of activities for the day, the children are to receive a snack before lunch, a snack after nap, and a snack before the child is picked up. Their snacks consist of 2 (two) vanilla wafer cookies or half of a graham cracker. This, I believe, is not sufficient enough for the kids, especially for the fact being that there is not enough food during lunchtime for the kids. During lunch, the kids are asked who does and doesn't want to eat. Those who don't want to eat don't get food. For those who don't finish their food, the food is transferred onto another plate into The kitchen and is given to the next child. The three buildings are infested with termites, roaches and ants. Cheap spray is being used to treat the buildings. It obviously isn't working. For your child's safety, please refrain from signing up to this daycare. The owner and director are never there and only talk you up to keep you from taking your child out.

This review is for the Preschool at Woodland…read more We've had kids here for 2 years and they love it. The teachers absolutely love the kids as if they were their own which is all you can ask for. While some preschools focus so much on academics, Woodland allows kids to do what they do best - play. My kids come home with crafts every week and beg to go to school over holidays and the summer. They always have holiday programs for the kids and who doesn't love to see their three or four year old in a Christmas play? Tuition is not horribly expensive like other preschools in the city. Parents tend to be regular middle class people of a variety of faiths (we're not Presbyterian per se). It does fill up, so check with the office well in advance of the beginning of the school year.

This is a great school. I have two kids at this school with one graduating this year. My senior…read morestarted here as a sophomore and my youngest started in eighth grade. This has been the best move for my kids. The teachers care about the students and go above and beyond for them. My only issue with the school has been some and only some of the administration. I believe there is a lack of authority when needed sometimes. I seems as though if it is a student with parents who are donators or of some importance those kids are not disciplined in the same way as others. I have seen some kids get expelled or suspended and others just get a slap on the wrist for the same or even worse discrepancies. With an administration change this school could be amazing!
