I really love the simplicity and bit of history that the school house offers Bedford!…read more The OBSH sits nestled behind a large open field off of old Bedford Road. The field is home to Twilight Thursdays, Bedford's own little spring concert series, and to the huge Bedford Christmas tree. More informally its my girls and I's secret spot for exploring and Ice Cream on Friday afternoon's when my 3 year old gets out of preschool. I love that they can run, collect rocks and lady bugs, climb large rocks, and dig in the dirt road (Don't worry! We always put it back!) and be safely away from traffic off of the road. I can sit on a picnic blanket and watch and not have to worry about my kids falling off of a some large plastic playground, or getting run over by a car! My only suggestion, especially for twilight Thursdays, is that those fire ant hills are crazy! I got bit several times last season.. yikes! The school house itself is classic, and is like a last piece of country history in a city that becomes more suburban and built up every day. You can see pictures from the its glory days, look at a traditional one room school house set up, attend a murder mystery dinner, or rent one of their different rooms for meetings, or the entire building for a wedding. The last time my girls and I were there, my little one had to go to the bathroom and there was a wedding set-up going on, so we were able to sneak in (with permission!) and use the restroom. The set up was adorable...a PERFECT wedding venue. If I had known this place was available back in the day when I was married, I totally would have chosen it! The wooden stair case and old beams and windows make for great photo ops! I have also attended a 50th birthday celebration here a few years back! There was plenty room for a buffet, a bar, tons of guests and a live band.. totally fun! Last year we went to the school house to take some christmas pictures, and ending up choosing one with the school house in the background for our card! We also took some family photos here last weekend... out back they have bluebonnets, and some great stairs for backdrops. ....I am kind of sad I am writing this review, because now everyone will know my secret hiding spot in HEB for pictures, parties and play! :)

Won a gift certificate for the school. The gift certificate had no expiration on it. When we tried…read moreto redeem, the school made up a 60-day expiration and said we were 6 days over. Funny thing is, we've been looking for a music school for our son. If we'd had a good experience with them, they could have made money from us for years to come. Save a penny, lose a dollar. Oh well.

We stopped by to get a gift card for Christmas. I am glad I went inside the store was fun just to look around. Guitar Center has much more than guitars. If you want a guitar, they have new or used guitars electric or acoustic. All price range and name brands. Plus, they have different rooms with drums, synthesizer, speakers, and part and accessories. Service was good store was big plenty of stuff. This is a fun store to look around maybe it will inspire you to learn to play.

I want to pre-face this by stating that Stage Notes is a great place for kids to learn music and…read morearts. I have nothing against them. Their pricing is reasonable. However, one of their most recent hires is a Racist. His name is Raven, and he is at the Colleyville branch. This statement is not due to an incident or a miscommunication, it is a culmination of 4 months' worth of micro-aggressions. When it started, I assumed it was probably Sprectum-related (I have one of those) so benefit of the doubt. However, as time went on, his interactions with other parents, much paler in complexion, was just amazing. But when it comes to me, I got no updates, no progress reports. He would literally walk past me to go and inform the next parent whatever updates is needed, but not me. I tried to mention it to him, and all I got was a grunt. After a handful of weeks, I discussed it with the Office Manager. I'm sure she tried her best to address it. I am paying for Piano classes on a monthly auto-draw. I have no idea what progress is being made, what needs to be worked on adjusted or encouraged, and the instructor acts like my presence is his life's greatest inconvenience. Finally, I confronted him on the issue. He proceeded to go on the most bro-Schmo podcast rant I have ever heard, and just ended up calling me a liar, liar, you're lying, You're a liar. This was happening in front of my kid, so I had to be calm because they learn their conflict handling skills by observation. I stepped out of the room and let the class complete, because it had already been paid for. At the end of the class, he stated, "Next time, you come in here with a better attitude" with a weird smirk on his face. After that, myself, my kid, my pants on fire, and my auto-charge gladly left the building. So, in conclusion, Stage Notes is great. However, if you get assigned to Raven at the Colleyville branch, you will get great service. Just make sure that you're light skinned enough and pale enough, even if it means skipping your tanning appointment. #RavenTheRacist

He works so well with children with different needs (autism) and is upbeat and positive as well as challenging. The school offers lessons of all kinds as well as opportunities for performances.

That's not necessarily their fault, but it makes for a negative experience and inconsistent learning. The trophy system is a joke. They are a year behind. One child has her trophies, one child has some. We finally ended up with an instructor that hasn't left. Nick D. Is great, but customer service is the WORST. My son's schedule changed and he can no longer keep lessons in his schedule. We put in our 30day notice, and guess what? We don't get to keep our instructor or time slot so they can "prioritize other students". Never mind that we still pay for those 30 days. They don't care about your child or their preferences and comfort levels or trusting relationship with their instructor. The policy is essentially to no longer value your business and to suggest YOU make a drive to a different location, or accept the switch since you and your child no longer matter to them. I still have a child attending lessons there, and they've made it clear they don't care. It's absolutely unacceptable and truly horrible customer service. We had every intention of returning once my son's schedule cleared next year. Not anymore, and I would never recommend them again. Do better, Creative Soul.
