My son loved summer camp so much that he begged me to enroll him in the after school program. The staff is very nice and supportive of the students. They also back me up on disciplinary issues. My son knows there will be consequences at home and at MAW when rules aren’t followed.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
