From the very beginning, we appreciated how accommodating Anthony was given our limited time and how forthcoming he was with the information we needed to make our decision. Kyra was phenomenal! Although our kids were among many of her students, Kyra was so attentive and committed to their experience, helping clarify their interests in majors and helping them give voice to essays that were authentic to who they are- this was definitely not a cookie cutter experience! She was always supportive and well organized so our kids never felt overwhelmed or pressed for time. When we expressed concerns about the pathways for a particular major, Kyra put together an impressive presentation on the various options convincing us this pathway is fitting for our son. Kyra kept us in constant communication so we didn't need to worry about any hiccups or missed deadlines. We are so lucky to have found Ilumin Education to work with; they made the college application process seamless and actually enjoyable! We know that their involvement was key to our children being accepted to their "reach" schools! Thank you, Kyra, Anthony, and the entire team at Ilumin Education!

Who would have thought that Google's autonomous car had been an ongoing research since 2003? Almost every "upcoming" breakthrough in technology you hear in the news has been happening in-house long before everyone knows it, and SU is one of the best channels to get a good glimpse of this kind of technology. Learn first-hand how nanotechnology is used to curtail the world's leading causes of human maladies; be challenged to think exponentially - far beyond common case studies in tackling business and real-world scenarios through Kurzweil Technologies and X Prize Foundation; learn your genetic makeup and daily fitness analytics through 23andme's and fitbit's devices, and explore better ways of turning so-called obsolescence/untapped elements of the earth or solar system into sustainable and useful energy resources.

Leading thinkers from over 100 countries are selected to learn and share their ideas in space, robotics, networks, bioremediation / medical technological epiphanies among many others. From thereon, they can walk away with interesting ideas that can be applied to their respective lines of expertise and knowledge worldwide. The awesome part of this program is SU philanthropically chooses leaders in developing nations to enroll, all expenses paid, to grow more and provide better solutions to their nation's growing crisis. A noticeable demographics' basic necessities are not met in economically challenged societies, and SU aims to bring these respective pioneers to provide them with the tools and knowledge to tip the scales of poverty, hunger, and access to affordable medicine.

I remember having different extracurricular experiences to talk about but there was a missing piece of how to word my essay and let alone start on my essays. I spent 2 weeks blankly starring at my document before realizing I needed more help than I expected. It wasn't until I started working with John and Jamie that I was able to talk about my life experiences and turn them into strong essays that reflects who I am and the type of leader I am in any community. Working with them helped me quickly understand how college essays are structured and how I can word my experiences to illustrate my strong characteristics as a student and leader. I really appreciated the weekly workshops provided by Jamie and John for extra time to spend on essays. As someone who had a hard time finding time and motivation to work on my essays, the workshops and set meeting times held me accountable for getting my work done before each meeting. I would 100% recommend John's service to anyone else struggling during this process. I am now committing to UC Davis and I couldn't be more grateful for the help provided by John and Jamie.

Just to clarify: KM2A refers specifically to the after-school and pickup service. Reviews prior to 2026 mention KM2A's taekwondo program, which they no longer offer as of January 2026. Like others have noted, some drivers are better than others--but overall it solves our biggest challenge of juggling different pickup times, and the kids consistently get their homework done. Since we also love the taekwondo studio downstairs, this setup has basically become our favorite parenting life hack to simplify the week.

The classrooms and playground are fine, although due to the blacktop outside my sons NEVER wears shorts due to skinned knees. The teachers are harder to review, as each one is different and interacts with the kids differently. The newborn room was very relaxed, calm, clean, no shoes allowed, and quite. My youngest was always happy to go to school when he was in the newborn room. He was moved to the next room at age 18 months, then again at 2 years old. That is a bit too much changing around for a kid only there for a year, he's already had more than 8 different teachers. My 4 year old was in the 3 year old room for a year, and moved on to the 4 year old room just recently. He is pretty happy with his teachers, although he has had a couple issues with other students and we had to get the teachers involved they seems concerned and willing to work with us.

My daughter attended this school for the first time this June 2009. We were referred by a friend…read morewho has a kid that attends their preschool program. I'll start off with the positives.... They are reasonable in pricing, flexible with their time and days, and they also provide warm lunches that are delivered daily for the kids, and majority of the staff are pretty nice. However, just recently, my daughter was playing at the playground during outdoor free time and a boy from another location was placed there for the day b/c he was not allowed to go on a field trip (older boy). Somehow, they were arguing over who goes down the slide first and my daughter was allegedly accused that she was adamant on going first when the boy was actually first. The boy scratched her face and left her scarred from forehead down to around her ears, cheek, and even her right arm, near her armpit. When my husband and I went to question the teachers, staff at CYW, they were not very straight with us. However, the people we talked to that very day did not have the insights. We just asked what happened and how come the teachers weren't watching to prevent this from happening. And basically, the Director (Ms. Trina) called me later that afternoon and said that the teachers were watching and that the ratio is always the same. BUT if the teachers were watching, how come it wasn't prevent? Shouldn't they stop the kids from fighting over the slide? Shouldn't the teacher tell our daughter and that boy to play nicely, and to share...or ask who was there first and direct the other child to wait?? NO! but of course not, they weren't paying attention that's why my daughter left with scars on her face! She's still traumatized til today. Touches her face and says "friend hit me".....how sad is that for a 2.5 yr old to have her first daycare/preschool experience like this. Lastly, sadly to say....when my husband and I decided to pull her out and place her somewhere else, Ms Trina, the Director didn't seem to care or want our daughter there. Obviously they don't want our business and does not care about their students or parents concerns. My husband comes into the office, tells Ms Trina we will pull our daughter out, and all she said to my husband was "sign here!" Seriously what kind of service is that? There was no questions asked of "why? how can we work around this? Can we find a solution to keep her here to try it out again? What are your concerns for pull her out?" NOTHING, NADA, ZIPPO!!! We were very disappointed to see how she handled our decision, but we're not surprised because the situation was handled exactly the same way they handled our daughter's incident...and that's without a CARE! obviously these staff does not care about anyone but themselves and their wallet. We are glad we made the decision to pull her out. LIke the saying goes, True Colors show when sh*t hit the fan. I suggest you take your kids elsewhere, definitely not here!
