“My daughter is currently enrolled in the YMCA Kindergarten program. I am BLOWN AWAY with what my daughter is learning. I’m a teacher myself and just am in awe of what she comes home and talks about. We get a Tadpoles report after pick up that breaks down all the learning and exploration that took place that day. This tadpoles report is also a way for her teachers to share pictures and videos. Every night at dinner, I take out the report and as a family, we discuss the “question of the day”. My daughter has been exposed to fractions, architecture, nature, etc. The growth my daughter has had this year is unbelievable. I am so glad we were able to enroll her in a program that promotes community, family, friendship, and excitement for learning. Thank you for making school fun!”
