The Genius Kids Club

We had an awful experience with our child. I enrolled him for three weeks of summer 2024. Then we enrolled him for afterschool program. He is a fourth grader. Until third grade, he went to different after school program but this time one of his friend went there so I enrolled him. On month three, they mail me that my son has serious mental health issues and they can not continue. They gave me two weeks notice to withdraw my kid. After one week the director told me my child has behavioral issues that needs to be consulted or treated! Well his school and other afterschool never informed me! I talk to his school teacher and she informed no issues at all. I asked Lauren the director why she didn’t inform me during three weeks of summer camp? She told me she wanted but didn’t know I was enrolling him for afterschool! That was the answer. My son went to different summer camp before their one. No issues at all. Second month, my son was having nightmares not to go there and this time we set up a meeting. The teachers told us they will take care of his needs. His needs are he wants help of his Russian school of mathematics homework and breaks from their own stressful curriculum. They said Russian math school is their rival so they won’t help! They told us they will give him breaks and I told them I am not worried about their curriculum because my son is at the good side of his school so I am not concerned of his education. He never goes afterschool with homework. He finished at school. They told me my son multiple time told them “HE is not a good person. He doesn’t have any point of existence.” “HE wants to nuke the whole world” “He wants to crashed to the windshield of the car and doesn’t want to wear a seatbelt”. He did says all out of his frustration of that creepy place. Teachers treated him so bad that he just wants all the negative thoughts. A nine year old having nightmares of a new afterschool means a lot. The director Lauren didn’t inform me any of those when happened. She mailed me with a date of withdrawal which is against California licensing. I informed my son’s teacher. She was surprised the way they address his behavioral issues because none of those happening at school. I withdraw him right away and put him to another facility. Asked for what teachers thinking about him after two months. The teachers answer was “He is a nice addition to their classroom”. So this management and director doesn’t know and doesn’t care about children. They wants your money and specific children. The children who will sit down on a space until parents will pick up. Children wants some moving will be addressed as a behavioral issue child when no one else before informed parents. They pushed my son to act crazy and put a notice of withdrawal because they have lots of waitlist of children who are quite and can sit on a space for three to four hours. Others will get a withdrawal notice after one or two weeks. Business will run fast too.

The Genius Kids Club Danville (GK) is a great after school organization! As a parent, I entrust my greatest blessing to the teachers, director and staff at GK every day, and I am grateful for the loving care and guidance my son receives. The after school program is incredible and the teachers are friendly and eager to teach.

Good for advanced learners and for kids needing homework help
