    Went in to drop some papers off, and there was literally nowhere to park what so ever…read more Ended up having to park in the way back and basically creating my own parking along side someone else who did the same thing. I was only there a few minutes so it was ok. The staff member in the main building was very kind and helpful.

    Early Head Start Program at 1100 East 8th Street, Reno, NV 89512…read more If I was counting on this daycare I would have been fired for the amount of times I would have to call out due to classroom closures. Unfortunately this program is lacking. They tell you that they run this program like any other school in the WCSD. This is false! What normal school is cancelling school stating we don't have an instructor for the day. Would you not get a substitute instructor? My child was in their infant room. Classroom hours Monday to Thursday 8-4:30pm, Friday 8-12:30pm. Before my child was able to start the two "instructors" had to come do a home visit for me to sign forms. Since when do daycares do home visits? My child started the week of Thanksgiving 2025. I am a single parent in nursing school, not originally from Nevada so getting my child into the program felt like a lifesaver. I thought that I would have consistent care for my child Monday to Thursday. Well, that did not happen shortly after starting in November 2025 the classroom would send out a text messages 30-60 minutes prior to the 8am start time stating that the classroom was closed for the day. From 12/2025 to 5/2026 they have closed the classroom at least 17 times! When the first multiple day classroom closures happened I called and spoke to the manager, Amber. She stated that it was very uncommon for the classroom to be closed. Due to these last minute classroom closures I was left scrambling to find child care in order to make it to my school sessions. Another issue, was a day I had pre-planned to have a friend pick up my child due to my school schedule. I informed the daycare who would be picking up my child, I was told that this person could not do the pick up because I had not previously added them to the list and they (daycare) did not have a copy of their ID. At which time I told them, they didn't have a copy of my ID or another pick up persons ID, funny to be implementing a rule now but not at the beginning of us starting with you. Lastly, from the beginning I let them know my child was on a delayed vaccine schedule. When the daycare asked I would show proof of upcoming appointments/vaccine records. Most recently, week of 5/11/2026, I was told while trying to drop off for the day that they were sure if they could keep my child and that they needed to reach out to their health department. After a few phone calls that weren't answered I advised that I would take my child with me because I had to get to school myself and couldn't wait for them to get a call back. While I was there, I did remind the "instructor" that I had sent a copy of the updated vaccine record as well as a letter from the medical provider of the delayed schedule. If there was an issue with this they should have said something on 5/11/26.

    Any parents with kids at SNACS PRESCHOOL In stead....Please give me your feed..... my boys have…read morebeen at SNACS since mid November around the 2nd month they would send home my kids a lot. Am I the only one this is happening too??? Week 1 off incident Teo 3 years old has "Ringworm" now my son suffers from eczema since he was a baby. But because it was a perfect circle the center flagged it as "ringworm" ok fine picked him and took him to his medical office. Got him some steroid cream and fixed the ringworm issue. He missed the entire week school kept the 170.00 kool fine they got bills to pay too. Week 2 upon his return Teo had two blow outs no fever no nothing ok fine we pick him up where told he can't return for 72 hrs. So another fully paid week kool I work from home and mom is available so guess that's kool......I have millions to donate I guess.... ohh no diarrhea the rest of the day or week by the way Week 3 Teo returns and now not even 4 hrs in school I get a call Teo has a cough you need to pick him up oh by the way in order for him to return he needs a negative covid test.... me being the worried mother I am takes him to Renown urgent care to get that covid test. Feeling guilty the entire time over putting him in a day care. Scared he might actually have covid and all sorts of thoughts racing through my head. 72 hrs late Teo has a negative covid test doctor says it's just my son adjusting to daycare life that it's totally normal for kids to catch things when they've never been in daycare. Week 4 only went like a day due to holidays Week 5 brings to today Teo experienced a nose bleed At school a couple hours after my husband and I dropped him off. FYI I did not take Teo to school Monday because he legit had a cough this time. So ok they call I send my husband to pick up Teo. Somewhere between the pick the school calls back "Manu Teos brother said daddy hit Teo" ok that's concerning anyways.... hubby comes home watches Teo while I work..... oh by the way Teo does get regular nose bleeds it's on his medical record and I do remember telling the teachers about it. It's due to the dry air in the valley and his sensitive nose. 4 hrs later we have the RPD AND CPS thank god at least I know our city is on it for reports. I want to give them a big shout out as if this was a legit reason I would owe them my life my everything!!!! I appreciate our law enforcement especially our case workers and am glad they came over today. Upset emotional and a bit embarrassed but overall satisfied with the empathy and support shown today!!!! Needless to say my boys will never go back to SNACS I UNDERSTAND THEY ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT INCIDENTS AND WHAT NOT. That's fine but after reviewing the multiple incidents not mention all things my boys say happen there that now I feel where big time red flags.... So back to my question any other moms/dads get there kids regularly sent home from SNACS.... The director legit told me "every daycare has that one kid who is always sick" "Teo happens to be that kid" I think is false his only been sick according to them while in there care bacause this past 5 weeks his been fine while at home in exception to this past weekend. So please any feedback is appreciated I need to know if it's only my family or if this is happening to any other family's. I will also need a new daycare center or licensed babysitter I pay 170.00 per each child and I work Monday-Friday 11:30-8:00 but they only need care from 11:30 to 4:30.

    The director is the worst and should be replaced…read more Kids get hurt all the time on their watch. They don't watch the doors & the "teachers" are never the same - huge turnover.

    Our son is at Lake Tahoe Prep. The class size, teachers and overall experience has been really…read morepositive. The staff has been really supportive. Beautiful campus and surroundings. Great so far.

    I came across SVA (Squaw Valley Acady) while researching for a boarding High School for my nephew…read morein China. I also spent a day there. Students use lap tops during class with wifi access. A lot of emphases is placed on learning with a laptop. . (All wifi are turned off at 11pm at night.). Considering all standardize tests in the US are computerized (MCAT, LSAT) and most work environments in the US use electronic records exclusively, lap top in classroom is a good idea. Students come from all over the world with the goal of attending a college in the US. SVA has transformed itself in the past few years to focus on college prep for international students. Class sizes are small, usually less than 10 students per teacher. I noticed the students get alone with each other rather well. This is observed during lunch time. I see students from different countries sit next to each other. Dorm rooms are 1-4 students per room. Most of the ones I saw have 3 students in them. There is a microwave on each hall, fridge and safe in each room. Overall the rooms are larger than the one I used to live at UC Berkeley 20 years ago. (unit 1 Cheney) and much larger then the tiny rooms at Univ of Tennessee. Washers and dryers are free for students to use. At night, dorm exits have security alarms, hallways are video monitored SVA pride itself at offering a balance between academic and personal development. They encourage students to take advantage of it's location to learn many physical activities Tahoe has to offer - hiking, soccer, golfing, cycling, ski / snowboard. I think this makes SVA different from other college prep school. I have the opportunity to spoke to students there. Due to the many Saturday field trips student take, expect another $4000 or so in additional expenses. While the students like them, parents may be surprised at the bill.
