We come here for the Wednesday children's program because it is top notch! The teacher they have is…read moreso engaging and thoughtful in all that she offers. Her presence is such a joy and you can tell she really loves children. Throughout the music and movement portion, along with story time, your child will be introduced to basic concepts such as ABC's, colors and numbers, arts and crafts, dancing, songs, foreign language and more. The consistency and repetition helps the child remember the songs so they can participate more easily. It's very hands on and thoughtfully planned. We have noticed a big growth in attendance over the last few months so it can be a bit overwhelming when the class has reached full capacity. I recommend getting there early, if you can, to ensure you have a spot. It's that popular!! I really wish Forsyth county library would model their story time after this, I feel like this should be the standard and as a result more children would be thriving. Having the exposure to a bilingual teacher who teaches Spanish in a fun way has been so appreciated. The children section of the library itself is separated and offers toys for the children to play with. It's organized in a way that makes it easy to find books and the staff is super friendly and accommodating. The only thing different in this county vs. Forsyth, is if you wanted something printed you will need to be prepared to pay, whereas in Forsyth county, your first 10 pages are free. Their sensory garden, which was opened within the last year, really fell short in my opinion as to what I was expecting. Sometimes it seems like people who design these things have no experience with what we are truly in need of or what's developmentally appropriate or helpful for engagement of the senses. It's a big flop, we visited it one time and that was enough. Doesn't help that there is no shade and it's next to a loud busy road. Not much or a garden experience either. Just hot pieces of metal and plastic to look at that feels more artistic than sensory. You'll see what I mean if you visit. Overall the classes are where it's at, not just for children but adults too! So come here for that if you want to participate in free offerings and meet like minded people in your community!

Im 36 and have an established family and life. I was attending to get a certificate. Upon getting accepted, it was time to get books a week or so before school started. This is where my beef with the school comes in. There are a lot of bureaucratic rules and regulations with going from station to station getting books and particularly with just trying to get information. I am not sure how GTCC hires staff, there is a certain perception that they may use temp staff. Alot, (not all) were very apathetic and uncaring about anything they were helping with. There is alot of conflicting, contradictory info given. It was a joke after a very short time. One lady working in the cashiers area was incredibly rude to my wife, who was simply asking questions we had. There was absolutely no excuse for that. The point being, if you have never been to this school, be prepared to talk to people that do not care one bit about customer service, being nice and respectful, or attempting to take pride in the job they were doing. It was very frustrating. I decided not to pursue this certificate for other reasons. This was negative experience was definitely a factor in the decision. Be warned.

NJIT Highlanders vs. High Point University Panthers at the Qubein Center…read more I saw that NJIT, a school where I studied engineering before earning my degree in Charlotte, was playing at High Point University on Friday, December 5th at 7 pm. I try to attend at least one Highlanders game each year--usually in Newark, NJ with my longtime friend, an NJIT Alumni, Mike Johnstone. Even after moving to the North Carolina Triangle, I am still committed to seeing at least one Highlanders "Hoops" game annually. This year, the timing lined up perfectly. I had volunteered earlier in the day at the Fall 2025 Senior Design Expo at UNC Charlotte as a Lee College of Engineering alumnus, so the game in High Point was on my drive home. That said, I would have made the trip from Raleigh regardless. High Point entered that night with every advantage--better form, home court, a stronger roster, and momentum; however, I knew I would enjoy cheering on NJIT. High Point competes in the Big South Conference and started the 2025-26 season strong. Going into Friday's game, they were 7-2 overall and were picked in the preseason poll to finish first in the Big South. The Panthers are a solid mid-major program, coming off one of the best seasons in school history and carrying that momentum forward. NJIT, meanwhile, plays in the America East Conference and entered the night at 3-6 overall. Their road performance has been difficult, and historically the Highlanders have faced challenges, with a long-term winning percentage under .400 since joining Division I in the mid-2000s. Still, I was proud to support them. The outcome was expected, and High Point defeated NJIT 89-72. Despite the loss, I was proud of how competitive NJIT was, and I genuinely enjoyed watching both teams--High Point is an entertaining, well-coached squad. About the Qubein Center The Qubein Center is an impressive venue for basketball and university events. It is modern, beautifully maintained, and staffed by exceptionally friendly people--from the ticket office to the ushers. Because I have knee issues that make stairs difficult, I appreciated that the staff proactively offered me a ticket in the back row so I would not need to navigate steps. Access to my seat was seamless: elevator up, escalator down after the game, and no stairs required to reach the accessible men's room or concessions. The section also had non-assigned accessible seating, and the usher kindly allowed me to use one. That made my viewing experience even more comfortable. Overall, the Qubein Center is one of the most thoughtfully designed college arenas I have visited. Parking & Shuttle Bus Experience I parked in a surface lot off North University Parkway (across from Parkway Commons), located directly across East Lexington Avenue from the Qubein Center. High Point University operates shuttle buses between the parking areas and the arena, which made transportation simple and efficient. Even though I hold a North Carolina DMV Disability Parking Placard, I parked in a regular space adjacent to the designated accessible parking. I do this intentionally so that individuals who require van-accessible spaces can use them. The shuttle service was prompt, courteous, and easy to navigate. About High Point University High Point University is a private institution founded in 1924. In recent years it has grown significantly in both size and academic scope. HPU enrolls approximately 5,000 undergraduate students and is known for programs in business, health sciences, pharmacy, communication, education, interior design, and the arts. The university is also recognized for its significant campus investment, student-experience focus, and national rankings for innovation. For the 2025-26 academic year, HPU's estimated undergraduate tuition and fees are in the range of $45,000-$48,000 annually, with total cost of attendance (including room and board) typically exceeding $60,000. About NJIT The New Jersey Institute of Technology is a public polytechnic university founded in 1881 in Newark. It is widely known for engineering, architecture, computer science, applied sciences, and technology-focused business programs. NJIT enrolls roughly 11,000 students, including one of the most diverse engineering student bodies in the country. As a public institution, NJIT's tuition profile is significantly different from HPU's. For 2025-26, in-state undergraduate tuition typically falls in the $17,000-$19,000 range, while out-of-state tuition is generally around $33,000-$35,000. Overall Impression I had a great time attending the game. I was impressed by High Point University, its fans, the professionalism of the staff, and the overall atmosphere the university created before, during, and after the game. The Qubein Center is a standout facility, and the experience was smooth from parking to seating to the game itself. Even though the Highlanders came up short, it was a memorable night, and I look forward to returning.
