I would not recommend Devine Savior Academy near Houston, Texas…read more Our experience with this school was extremely disappointing. We paid the enrollment fees, completed the process they requested, and after that, communication completely stopped. I called multiple times and was repeatedly told that someone would reach out to us, but nobody ever did. Now they are refusing to refund the enrollment fee despite the lack of communication and follow-up from their admissions team. What is even more concerning is that in an email today, they stated that they believe their communication was handled appropriately. Honestly, what a shame. Ignoring families, failing to follow up, and then refusing accountability is not proper communication. A student will made you tour the school and their admission lady will show up at the end to give you the enrollment document. I should have understand their lack of consideration right away I truly wish I had seen the warning signs earlier. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this school to other families.

We started at DSA last year and we are very happy with DSA. We have one in high school and one in…read moremiddle school. A good school starts with strong leadership and the elementary/middle/high school principals are strong leaders. We like that DSA teaches accountability, among other things, which is generally lacking in society these days. Perhaps in part because they are part of a network of several other DS schools, they seem very well structured in all aspects, including communication with parents, curriculum, and school operations. While they are small (but growing), they function as well as or better than a larger school. The homework load seems very well balanced, especially compared to their previous school. The teachers are excellent and everyone is very nice. The students are good kids and we've been impressed with the behavior and politeness of our kids' friends. The parents we have met are very nice with similar family values. We hoped we would find a community, and we have made new friends with othe families through our kids and their friends. Despite the small size, the school offers several sports programs, including football and volleyball, and is very competitive against schools that are much larger. They built a new middle/high school building last year and it is a top class facility. Great gym, big, modern classrooms, great courtyard, multipurpose chapel, and more. Tuition remains very reasonable in comparison to other private schools in the Houston area, especially considering the low teacher:student ratio.

I'm pretty satisfied with how they handled my daughters transfer here. Her old school was harassing…read moreher because my son went there and got into trouble. I was at my wit's end. I felt helpless so we moved. Not only did they not honor sending her to alternative they welcomed her with open arms and treated her good. The staff is so friendly and understanding. I can't express how grateful I am. I wish we would have moved sooner. Thank you guys!!!!!!

I went to this school for high school and went back today. The school looks pretty much the same…read more One difference would be that they seem to have increased the number of "tshacks". The entrance is not too bad and the front staff are pretty helpful. There also seems to be good amount of parking for visitor/guests.

Staff treated me like a student when I was just dropping off my freshman little brother. One staff…read moremember grabbed my wrist and asked "where are you going? " aggressively. Honestly I was disgusted that I was grabbed like that. I did not give the woman permission to grab my wrist. After I explained to her that I am a adult she let go of me. Now I see why the new kids hate Elkins... I graduated from Elkins about 9 years ago, but didn't understand why my little brother hates that place. But now I have a inkling that it's because the staff treats students with aggression starting at 6AM to 3PM, 5 days a week! It's disheartening. The next time I see that RUDE woman who grabbed me I'll be sure to ask for her name. (She was maybe African American, about 5 foot 8-10 inches. Black hair. Heavier set than average and around 50-60 years old)

I rarely ever do reviews but I feel this one is necessary since customer service and best business…read morepractices seem to be going out the window. 2 times now their website payment portal has been down and because of that they charged me a non autopay tuition rate. After showing proof of the website error stating website is down, management continued to ignore their fault and charged the additional rate for being "late." The front desk staff need customer service training. No hellos... no I'm sorry I couldn't assist you, is there anything else I can help you with"... just blank stares. Note I was friendly and just trying to understand the additional charges when the website was not working. Not that I didn't pay. Also, this is all operational issues, nothing on the coaching staff.

A review for bday parties:…read more We had a party for one of our kids and my second child loved it so much she changed her bday plans and requested to have it at Olympia as well. We love we can bring our own food or order through their catering services. The website is user friendly & easy to book. Packages range from 10-40 kids. Pricing and # of tables provided for you to figure out to book, I like the 30 mins option and times are flexible for early to evening parties. We brought our crockpot and there's a place to plug it in. The space is just accommodating and the staff to guide the party were amazing and friendly. Assisting to setup & breakdown as well. We are so glad are guests enjoyed the party and was shocked to discover the venue. Even though it's a share space, it just didn't feel like it. I like the space they have for the parties and doesn't clash with each other. Highly recommend I had celebrated a 4 & 9 year old. And the adults themselves got to enjoy the obsracles.

1. Overall Customer Service is absolutely horrible. 2.They…read morenever answer there phone. They don't return phone calls when your leave a message on voice recorder. 3. They will challenge you when you tell them that you didn't receive a call back. I showed them a call log of the number of times I call and leave messages and no return calls and the girls who work there will still argue with you as if I am not a paying customer. 4. They don't have any hours of operation so you never know if anyone will ever pick up the phone. 5. Parking is a nightmare 6. They don't take credit cards and if you use it , there is a 3% service fee regardless of what kind of credit card it is. They prefer CASH or check. 6. Instructors seemed ok, if you can deal with the above 7. Owner was pleasant and so was her daughter once I finally got in touch with them. I wish they were present more often to witness the younger staffs lack of customer service skills. 8. They don't offer make up classes like other dance and gymnastics studios. You miss you still pay. 9. They did honor my request for a refund. Sadly my daughter will not attend the dance recital which I have already paid for the costume . Dance Studio has so much potential to be so much better!
