I would maybe give a better review of the after-school program my son is enrolled in, but it's entirely opaque. My only contact is with the person who opens the door to let me into the building each... See more

Adrian loved Lego class!

Adrian loved Lego class!
He will be in Middle school next year and is already sad he probably won’t have Lego classes offered there.
Is there any program like this one you have in plan for Madison Middle School students?
Thank you.

As he moves to middle school, we encourage you to share his enthusiasm for our program with the new school, as it can help us explore offering similar classes there. Please have them connect with us directly, and in the meantime, we offer various summer programs that Adrian might enjoy. Thank you for your support!

This program is so well rounded…

This program is so well rounded providing activities across the entire STEAM range. My son enjoys his time each and everyday and I feel this is so much more enriched than your average after care program. The instructors are all great. Ms. Sierra is always so helpful, kind, very bright and clearly loves what she does. Thank you all so much for all you do everyday!!

Did not deliver

This was THE most expensive summer camp week we had for 2023, but my child was excited to learn about filmmaking and make a movie so we went ahead and did the camp. All they did all week was draw, eat lunch, and watch YouTube unsupervised. I could have kept him home to do that for free. They did not make a movie as promised. Such a disappointment for an excited kid and for us parents. When we asked for our money back because the camp didn’t deliver, we were told no because they had provided the care. Well, I didn’t sign up for a warm body in the room, I signed up for a filmmaking camp. I gave two stars instead of one because we also signed up for Lego Robotics and in that one, they actually did build moving Legos. There are so many quality programs out there, but this one can’t offer a consistent ability to deliver - it’s a roll of the dice. We’re not even considering Kidz to Pros for 2024.

After an accident

There was an accident in the bus and Sora was so upset yesterday. The teacher called me and told the situation. She even created a chance for Sora to speak with me over the teacher's phone. She kindly played with him till I arrive there.

Good customer service

They were understaff on the first day of the camp so my daughter was not happy that all they did was running in the gym and playground for a whole day. After we provided the feedbacks, they quickly responded our emails and made changes to their program. Overall it was a positive experience.

Terrible

Terrible. They did not provide any educational services promised - no "LEGO Robotics", no "Roblox - Obstacle Course", no "Music Compositing", nothing. They just had the children play Minecraft on an old laptop and that was it. They never sent us any photos or videos of the kids playing at the camp.

My son refused to go to this camp after four weeks (with two more paid weeks left), because it was boring and terribly disappointing. The camp never called us, never wondered what happened, never was curious if my son was sick or anything was wrong. They just didn't care at all.

This "KidzToPros" camp was at Doyle Elementary in San Diego.

My son said that he had so much fun this week that he wished the robotics camp was longer.
