Not happy with Terrell elementary policies. I had car…read moretrouble this morning and I have 3 kids at 2 different elementary schools in the district. I have have trouble with Lamar elementary, but with Terrell it's always one little thing after the next. This year they have implemented a new thing that just to sign your child in to school for being late you have to scan your ID, take a picture of your face through their camera for their database and get a visitor pass. School starts at 8:30 and we arrived at 8:32. I didn't not come in with my ID because why would I need an ID so that my CHILD can go to class? I had to walk back to my car just so I can get on the computer in the hallway outside of the school just to have to take my picture AGAIN and scan my card for a visitor pass so I can walk to the front desk that I can see from where I was standing. To sign in on a pice of paper so my son could walk to his class. I don't think I should have the do such tedious little things just so my kid can go to class 2 Minutes late. And not only that. If he is tardy 2 more times, whether it is by 2 Minutes or an hour, it counts as a full day of absence.. how can 3 separate times or being 2 Minutes late equate to a full day of absence?! It makes me feel like on the 3rd day I should just keep him home since it will be counted as an absence anyway. Why can't they just have a sign in sheet in the front hallway? Wouldn't that be so simple?

I may have submitted 5 online reviews in my life, but I felt the need to review ALFK Academy in…read moreSherman, Texas. I will start off by saying I am a first responder so I am extremely picky and very protective when it comes to my children. If I didn't have total confidence in ALFK Academy I would not be leaving this review or entrusting them with my child's care and education. When we moved to the area a year and a half ago we needed to find child care/early education for our youngest. We searched around the Sherman/Denison area and zeroed in on ALFK Academy after checking with other centers because of their focus on teaching children in a Christ centered atmosphere. The class sizes are great and allow for more one-on-one time if needed. The entire staff is wonderful and communicate with us on a daily basis whether at drop off or pick up, or via phone if there is a need to do so. My son is excited every morning to go to school and see his teachers and friends. Sometimes he can be quite a handful, but the staff know exactly how to bring him down a level in a calm and caring manner and have done a wonderful job in helping us prepare him for kindergarten. In fact, he is at a higher level now than our other children were at the same time in their lives, and I have no doubt it is due to the curriculum and teachers he has at ALFK Academy. I really could go on and on regarding the positives of ALFK Academy, but I worry this could become so long many won't read the entire review and just keep scrolling, so I will close by saying.... If you are looking for a Christ centered education and child care that is very affordable in these often difficult economic times, a place that takes wonderful care of your child, has top notch audio/visual security and secure check-in/check-out, and a wonderful staff that TRULY cares about each child under their care then stop in or give them a call.
