The camp offered a great variety of activities, including art projects, movie day, making melty bead creations and many more activities which kept the kids engaged both in and out of the pool. One of the best parts was that the camp included two swim lessons each week. My child made noticeable progress with their swimming skills and, more importantly, gained so much confidence in the water. The instructors were patient, encouraging, and created a positive environment where kids could learn while having fun. I highly recommend this camp to any family looking for a fun, well-rounded summer program that helps children build swimming skills and confidence. We'll definitely be back.

The staff is warm, loving, and truly invested in the children's development. we have built a great rapport with Keelan as well as the each of my daughters teachers. My daughter has been attending for 2 years and has learned so much, from social skills to academics. She will soon be entering her third year and now my second daughter will be starting this summer as well. They have a fantastic, play-based curriculum and always keep us updated with daily reports. The facility is clean and safe, and the teachers truly treat the kids like family. We always feel at ease leaving our child here. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a nurturing and engaging environment!

My boy was here since he was 18 months old. One of the things i love about this place was that…read moreteachers stay here for years and years. That to me is a reflection that teachers are treated well and they are not spread thin. Also I was able to bring food from home, so I could have him have the food I wanted him to have with ingredients I know. He loved all the art and music classes. People at the reception desk know all kiddo's name and parents. Their pairing for teachers for each class was good too. When you learn the dynamics, you can tell it was not just a random placement. Big shout out to Ms Erika, Ms Joyce, Ms Courtney, Ms Kim and Ms Naomi! We were so happy to have you guys in his early life.

We got to feed the lemurs and the porcupines (my favorite), and the pet giant tortoises and Sid the Sloth (my mom's favorite). The entire tour was SO educational and it was obvious that these animals were being looked after my experts who knew all about them and their needs and reasons they could not be released/re-released into their natural habitat. I learned so much about each animal. It couldn't have been any better. Highly recommend this tour, because what better way to support this kind of sanctuary with your money?

I've been getting all A's there. They understand if I don't get something right away. They work with me and they care about me." As parents, at least for me, I often wonder if I'm doing the right thing. With Elmarie and her experienced, dedicated, and talented staff, I can rest well knowing that I got this part [my child's education] right. I can't recommend any of the campuses and online classes enough.

Elmarie who owns and runs it is so kind, patient and helpful. She always is so responsive to any questions I may have. She hires such fun, easy going, excellent teachers that really care about the students. There are so many really cool, unique, engaging classes, that sometimes it's hard to decide which to take! You can take just one class or many classes. You're sure to find something your student will be interested in. They also have one on one tutors in some subjects. They have basic and required academics like Math, Science, ELA, History, Social Studies and more. From Kindergarten up to High School classes for full credit, even foreign languages. They can change from semester to semester, due to teachers avail and interest. Many of the teachers have been teaching there for years. My son has taken some of these awesome classes over the years: Music theory, Science, Math Movement, Fencing, Skateboarding, Basketball, History through Minecraft, California History, Readers Theaters, Lego Robotics, Coding, English, Jedi training, Cooking, Yoga, ASL and so many more. When my son needed an educational aide to assist him due to his learning challenges, they were fine with it and so supportive of her being there. All his teachers were. He never felt uncomfortable or out of place. She even told us what a great place it is also. The families and kids that attend are all so nice and accepting. I have never seen any bullying or mean spirted kids. It's very inclusive of all kinds of kids. We've made such great friends. I wish I could have gone to a place like LBB! We currently attend the beautiful Northridge location that has a big grassy yard and playground and the site managers there are just great with the kids. I trust them and feel so safe and calm to leave him there during the day and know when I pick him up, he'll have loads to share. The other locations are great too. We started here in 1st grade and after the pandemic my son wanted to try a private school with some other homeschool pals, but after the second year there we left because it was a bad environment, filles us with anxiety and dread and not what they claimed to be. So we went back to LBB. They welcomed him with open arms! On the 2nd day back our son said he felt comfortable, relaxed and that he can be more himself at Learn Beyond the Book. So glad we returned! Our son had his middle school graduation here at their end of year presentation. Yes. They give out diplomas, get school pictures and yearbooks too. They also have fun field trips, dances, game nights, pot lucks and other school community events. He's with a homeschool charter that we get funds for to pay for classes which is a bonus. He's in High School now and is learning so much. We've found his "school" and are here until he graduates High School! I urge you to check it out if brick and mortar "normal" schools aren't working for your family. Why should our kids be so stressed out and full of anxiety over school? There is a better way and place! My son has so much more confidence now, less worries and less homework and no anxiety! He feels so accepted here. We're so grateful to Elmarie and the whole staff at Learn Beyond the Book.

Walk around sometime and you'll notice that you'll get a much larger percent that don't return even a smile. Most of these kids are only Christian by affiliation. I know not much can be done about the way the student body is so this is really just a warning for those who may struggle fitting in and want to make new friends. You will most likely feel like an outcast, if you insist on attending the school, there will be some good teaching and classes but there will be a tons of hypocrisy so you have to gird up and take it and constantly remind yourself why you are there and press on. There will be racism and holier-than-though peeps and you won't make the cut to join their groups, but hopefully you'll find a friend or two that are truly trying to walk in Him as you press on in your studies. For those that are naturally likable, you'll be just fine. There's some truth for you... You decide.
