My daughter loves the activities that are given in the before school program. It also opens early enough for parents like myself that starts work early. I love the app used to follow health and safety protocols during this pandemic. I would definitely recommend.

Sometimes, its just really boring. Regulations restrict things such as time on computers, provision of a small amount of snack etc.
