Let me first state that we are new parents and saw no bad reviews for this center when we searched…read more We are writing this review so it is known and others can have some insight to one experience. We requested care in April and were put on a waitlist until August. With a waitlist, we felt that there were no concerns. During the tour, the director was great. She knew everyone's name, great personality and easy to talk to. Once our child started, we got access to the center's app to see a live feed. The first day was good and I could tell the teachers were trying to interact with my child and feed them. I was not particularly happy with how they woke my child from their nap as they picked them up aggressively and my child immediately cried on the camera. The teachers would say that my child ate their food, but nothing was touched during the camera feed. I understand there are a lot of kids, but the lying is upsetting. If they didn't know I would have rather it said "I don't know" or "none". The teachers did not engage with the children or if they did, it was with one or two of the same children every day. Diaper changes were very infrequent and that was very concerning. After this short experience, we decided to take our child out. Unenrolling was easy and I'm grateful that the center allowed us to withdraw immediately. I received an email survey and noticed someone's name attached. I was not familiar with this person so googled them and 2 lawsuits came up against the center. I will refrain from discussing those on here as they are not mine, but feel it should be known. I also want to mention that I did not mention anything to the director about my concerns, but did talk to a teacher directly about one. That was corrected the next day but then stopped. I hope this gives some insight to the center and allows new / other parents make a decision on their child's care.

No, no, no, no, no. Extremely overpriced tuition for what you get. It is more expensive to attend…read morethis community college than it is to attend a state university! My out-of-state tuition in TX was cheaper than this school. The admissions and financial aid office is completely inept. They actually straight up told me inaccurate information regarding ward of state tuition. They also do not have a very strong club and organization system, and they don't have many events and activities available for students. This place doesn't feel at all like a college. I don't know a single student that was satisfied with their college experience here.

My daughter is in her second year at College of Coastal Georgia. We initially thought that she…read morewould complete her first two years at this school, which is very reasonably priced. (The Clark Howard plan ). She majored in Biology, and we thought that she would ace all of her classes, since this school was previously a community college. Not so! She has been challenged with her classes and has even struggled to pass some! We are pleased with the academic rigor and availability of tutoring. The campus is very pretty and secure. Being close to the marshes, beaches and water provide much opportunity for field biology experiences. She will stay and is majoring in Coastal Ecology. My only complaint is that there is not more bike parking,and that the one bike rack is not covered.

Our school door to the public is always locked and we have protocols in place to make sure students are secure. Not only are our teachers trained to work with special education students, but the school system also employs two special education coordinators to work with students and teachers on site. We work closely with Dr. Melton, Wachin Kennedy, and Dr. Cato with the Camden County school board. We also have a trained Physician's Assistant/EMT and a school nurse on staff.

I took a chance and enrolled my oldest in ALA 2 years ago. I went through many challenges with the…read morepublic school system. She suffered from ADHD and was not being challenged enough with the public schools. We asked repeatedly for her to be tested for the gifted math program. When she moved to ALA in 5th grade, they immediately identified that she needed to be tested. She was placed in Middle school math and excelled. The individual attention each student gets really helped her focus. Most if not all the teachers have experience with special education needs whether is personal or professional. After the first school year at ALA, I moved my other child from Camden Public Schools to ALA. Since Kindergarten (currently in 3rd) I struggled to get them to identify what I immediately saw and to implement a IEP. I ended up having to go outside the system when she was in 1st grade to have her tested because they said it would be another year. I'm glad I did because they wanted to hold her back and of course we fought it since we identified the issue. They attempted to do it in Second but because I identified the lack of service being provided by the county and also having her in GA Cyber Academy for a semester we realized she was better in a smaller setting and one on one which the county could not provide. I moved her to ALA this year and she has caught up and now a straight A student. Her reading and math has improved so much. The proof is in how parents and school works together to help a child succeed. Some may find the way they teach different from traditional public school SPED, but they have taken several continuing education classes on helping the children especially dyslexia which the public system will not accommodate . The learning scale is based on where the student excels or falls below. So they may be in a middle school math but a 3rd grade reading level in the 6th grade. The child would be placed in the math level they excel in and then placed in a group where their reading level is worked on. When the child begins to show improvement they are tested to see if they could handle the current grade level. They use the same testing system as the public school to find the level. Their actual Special Education Teacher Mr. Clark is amazing. He is patience of a saint so to say when it comes to helping.

Jekyll Island Arts Association is housed in historic Goodyear Cottage in the Historic District on…read moreJekyll Island. The JIAA hosts art festivals and other events throughout the year, in addition to offering classes in a variety of art mediums. They have a pottery guild on the basement level, a store on the first floor, and classes upstairs. JIAA's store offers art created by its members, and they completely empty and restock the gallery every few months. There are dozens of artists' work on display; paintings, sculpture, fiber arts, pottery, even origami. It is so inspiring to walk through and look at everything. Prices range from as little as $5 or $10 for a crafty item, all the way up to the thousands for large paintings. Most of the art pays homage to the Golden Isles region, which makes it a special place to find a one-of-a-kind souvenir. I bought pottery pieces at the JIAA spring festival 2023, and a painting in Jan 2024. I smile every time I see these pieces in my home. JIAA members run the store, and often there is a member at a demonstration table working on their art during store hours, which is a very cool touch. Many members are retirees who live on the island and bring artistic experiences from all over the world, so for an arts center, this place draws from a diverse pool of talent, and a caucus of expertise. In other words, this place is beautifully appointed and well run!
