Thank you SciGenious, our son loved participating in these virtual activities. We highly recommend SciGenious for every child!

I am deeply disturbed by how Camp Highroad handled a serious health and safety incident involving…read moremy seven-year-old daughter. My daughter attended Pioneer Camp during the July heat. When I picked her up after approximately eight hours at camp, she was visibly lethargic, looked unwell, and repeatedly begged me for water. She immediately drank an entire 24-ounce bottle and was later taken to the emergency room for dehydration and heat-related symptoms. My daughter told me that she did not have her water bottle that day, repeatedly asked her counselor for water, and was told there were no cups available. Camp leadership later gave me a completely different account, stating that staff repeatedly offered her extra water bottles and that she refused every one of them. I was not present during the camp day, so I cannot personally say which account camp leadership believes is accurate. What I know firsthand is the condition in which my seven-year-old child was returned to me. Even accepting the camp's version, I cannot understand how staff responsible for supervising a young child during outdoor summer activities could allegedly watch her repeatedly refuse water throughout an entire day and take no further action. No one contacted me. No one reported a hydration concern at pickup. No one sought medical assistance. My child was simply returned to me lethargic, desperately thirsty, and sick enough to require an emergency room visit. I initially approached the camp privately because our family had loved Camp Highroad, my daughter cared for her counselor, and I genuinely wanted to understand what had gone wrong and how the camp would prevent it from happening again. Instead, camp leadership repeatedly stated that every safety protocol had been followed, relied on a liability waiver, refused responsibility for the hospital bill, and would not acknowledge that any breakdown had occurred. The camp did refund the week's tuition. This is not about attacking an individual counselor or damaging anyone's reputation. It is about whether the adults entrusted with a seven-year-old child took appropriate steps to ensure she remained hydrated and medically safe during a long day of outdoor activities in extreme summer heat. Parents should know how this incident occurred, the condition in which my child was returned to me, and how leadership responded when I raised the concern. Based on our experience, I no longer trust Camp Highroad to protect my daughter's basic health and safety.

I couldn't have been more pleased with Bricks 4 Kidz. I had planned an outdoor birthday party for…read moremy son, and the forecast showed rain all day. So I scrambled and found Bricks 4 Kidz at the last minute. They had the exact day AND the exact time slot that I needed. I purchased the pizza & juice party, and all I needed to bring was the cake. Robin and her staff took care of everything else. From free play LEGOs to art projects using LEGO machines, the kids had an absolute blast! The one and only gripe that I have is that telephone communication leaves something to be desired. Sometimes, I need to talk to a person instead of relying on email. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BRICKS 4 KIDZ!!!

They understand how to focus and get them to do their work. This has been a game changer for us. Also, my daughter has grown with her tumbling skills because of the amazing coaches here. The staff is always nice and caring. I see people have issues with refunds, but that's a reflection on them not reading the terms before paying, not the Fitwize staff. Always read the fine print when you sign up for things. Deposits are deposits for a reason and those usually cannot be refunded.

It's important to note that a lot of the really positive reviews here have become rather outdated…read more My child took classes at Fitwize in 2021 and 2022. It was okay. There was a lot of waiting-in-line-for-your-turn (didn't experience this at G-Force, Stingrays) and it often felt like the instructor was more interested in chatting with the students and getting them to laugh at his jokes vs teaching them skills. Some staff - high school students - were clearly not ready to be instructors. Jess is fantastic and my child learned a lot from her, but one teacher cannot an entire tumbling program make and we couldn't always get into her classes. We ended up moving to a program with a greater number of strong instructors who focused on clean form and consistent progression. There are better options in Ashburn.

Our pre-school teacher has been with the school over 26 years - we love her. As a matter of fact the teacher who has been here the shortest amount of time is 6+ years. Low turn over speaks volumes for the children's environment/programs. The school is located on 4 acres backing to a park. They have an awesome playground. The curriculum is literature based. They offer: pre-school, pre-K, full day kindergarten, afterschool care, mommy & me classes, & summer camp. If you are looking for a school, make an appointment. You won't be disappointed!
