It's a great place to workout when the Titan football team isn't practicing. Since COVID-19 there's been a huge uptick in people working out which is a good thing to see. The track & field got a little overrun with litter a few weeks ago, may have been due to staff not working during the height of the pandemic but has since been cleaned up and is typically well maintained. I enjoy walking & working out here, the people that come out are friendly.

This school has reasons to be both fun and terrible. There are some things that make this school…read morefun but others make it the worst. The first reason I have which makes this school bad is that some teachers are VERY racist. Yes, I'm talking about you miss, (definitely targeted) like some of us actually want to learn but are treated unfairly. WDYM you won't let me sit with my friends just because I'm not the race you like. Some people have their IPADS out because "they forgot their computer" but you're gonna make copies for me when I don't have it... AND you're gonna write me up if you see my phone IN my pocket... My second reason is that the bathrooms are actually so dirty. WHY do the pad machines not work?? They are catching dust. OMG and the nurse? Before we actually got ice packs but now?? FROZEN.NAPKINS. HOW is a napkin gonna fix anything. My final reason is that the food is actually hazardous. We found food that was expired LAST year... Oh and the broccolis actually stink. The fruits smelt so bad because they were DEFINITELY not "fresh". But a few things are great, for example the activities that we did were pretty fun and some of the teachers were nice and made you feel welcomed in there classrooms. But some teachers, PLEASE make your classrooms better. In conclusion, this school is fun SOMETIMES and terrible most of the time. Shoutout to Mr. Fique (best advisory + gym teacher) and Miss Perez. In the end, the memories that were made will stay forever!

The food is lovely and if you would like it to be better you could always order cafe from the Culinary students. Its location is amazing, after school you can walk over to walgreens, mcdonalds, and/or five guys and make it back to your bus in time. The Primes/Magnets are phenomenal.

The acoustics were pretty good. Performance was outstanding. Staff was a bit rude rushing parents into the theatre although they were trying to ask questions about parking and seating etc. Timing was not thoughtful as the event was at 5pm which was really tough due to downtown traffic and zero dedicated parking. Signage or direction could have been better. The address leads to the side entrance but the event entrance was around the corner. Ultimately, I will return for another show to support a local school that I respect so much, however, at least I know about parking and location in advance.

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!
