In reviewing my parents' finances, I became aware that the Baltimore Sun has been criminally over-charging them for paper subscription services, likely for many years.

Thats $9 per day!!!! Meanwhile, the intro price is $6.99 per week. This type of behavior, especially against elderly people managing chronic health conditions, is predatory, criminal and shameful.

I have never had any issues with delivery as other folks reported. The cost of the paper is ridiculous considering what you get, and I cancelled for a few months, but found that I missed it and re-subscribed at a better price. So even though my 4 stars is probably generous, I want to support the journalists who still do a great job in covering Baltimore and surrounding area.

My son attended the Young School at Honeygo Plaza for about a year of pre-k. He had a good…read moreexperience and left much better prepared for the classroom structure of kindergarten. This school takes a more curriculum/teaching-oriented approach rather than simple "day care". They follow a pedagogical philosophy similar to Montessori, emphasizing freedom and harnessing each child's own specific interests and motivations. The biggest strength of YS is the outstanding teaching staff, all of whom care deeply about the well-being and growth of the children. The different teachers within the "cottage" of four adjoining classrooms developed individual connections with my son and the other children, knowing well their various interests and quirks. The pre-k cottage director, Ms. Jess oversees the classrooms with expertise and a deep sense of empathy. She effectively fields informal chats with parents about questions and concerns that pop up on the fly. Between the wonderful teachers and cottage director, I always felt that my child was in very safe and nurturing hands. The classroom atmosphere is warm and inviting. There is lots of natural light and many learning stations with carefully thought-out objects left for the children to "discover". Kids get zero screen time at the Young School. Instead of punishing children, behavior is managed through redirection and talking. Healthy snacks are offered, and the staff teaches and practices good hygiene. The main area that could be improved upon is communication from the director. On several occasions, I received mass emails chastising (unnamed) other parents for taking screenshots of the live video feed, requesting child-specific changes to naptime logistics, incorrectly using cubby space, and calling in to the classroom during non-naptime hours. ("Any parent disrupting the day too frequently will lose camera access and a parent meeting will be requested.") I would prefer these types of issues be resolved by one-on-one conversations with the relevant parents, rather than public shaming. The unprofessional tone of these emails was underscored by a lack of basic proofreading. My child's classroom had high turnover, with three different teachers in a six-month period. Shockingly, when one left and was replaced by a brand new employee, parents were not given any notice whatsoever. I showed up one morning to drop off my son in his classroom and encountered a total stranger who claimed to be in charge. Luckily, another teacher was in the cottage area and vouched for the new teacher's legitimacy. Lack of preemptive communication on this type of matter is unacceptable. Another instance of poor communication occurred when initially attempting to enroll my child. The paperwork was confusing and I had trouble getting questions answered, as other reviews have noted. Overall, I recommend the Young School as a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for child; parents may have to deal with some unneccesary hassles.

I've received no phone call from the owners to discuss the experience. parents beware!

I signed up for a tour while early pregnant because waitlist in the area are extremely long. The tour was detailed, the facility was extremely clean and I noticed diversity among staff and students. They followed up after the tour as well. They stood out to me so I decided to visit again post-partum. I called, got an appointment scheduled and met with the director. Unfortunately, they did not have availability for my requested start date but I was allowed to complete an application and pay a deposit to be on the waitlist. However, later that day, another daycare on our list called to say they had an opening. I called Celebree back to request that they not charge my card for the wait list fee since I would be accepting a slot elsewhere. The Director was kind, understanding and did not charge me. She was gracious and said to follow up if we needed care in the future. I also appreciate that they answer more questions over the phone than other centers. I have had other places refuse to tell me if they had an opening or not. The director at this location is professional, helpful and not exploitative. Great service!

The evening started with light refreshment in the Level 1 lobby. Then, we went into the Graham Auditorium to hear Kate's vision for the future. It was really interesting. We were then encouraged to visit three floors of the museums that were open. There we could experience hands on explorations, conversations with curators, behind-the-scenes stories from conservators, sneak peak at new and returning exhibitions, and learn about volunteers programs. Being a member of The Walters really has so many benefits. On each floor, they also were serving more refreshments. We were excited to be able to see the Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture.

Regarding another collection, I read that the artists would inscribe their names and certain references, which weren't necessarily correct!
