Scottsdale/Paradise Valley Family YMCA

Clean modern facility that is both a fitness club and community home for people that are looking to belong to an organization that really cares about its members. Highly recommended.

Beautiful full workout gym. Features a full array of dumbbells from 10lbs to 125lbs. Full set of barbells. About 3000sf of workout machines. I am traveling from out of state and this is a perfect place to workout.

Staff is very courteous and friendly. The whole environment is family friendly and makes everyone feel welcome. Their kids play area is AWESOME and the childcare ladies are so sweet and interactive. Excellent, brand new equipment that you never have to wait for and a nice pool and basketball court. My favorite though is the variety of classes. There’s always something to choose from every day of the week!

I moved here two years ago and could not be happier with the education my boys have been provided with at Sixes. Their teachers took them from struggling learners to self confident, life long learners who believe in themselves. Every person shows an interest in all of the children from special educators to gifted teachers to the custodial staff and administration. My children love going to school because they are in an environment where they feel safe, loved, and nurtured. I have witnessed the amount of differentiation that goes on to meet the needs of every child, the focus on the development of the whole child, and the amount of technology used to prepare students for the 21st century, and the sense of a family atmosphere that is created at Sixes. Mrs. Crews and Mr. Gunter go above and beyond to develop relationships with each student and always put the needs of children ahead of everything else. I am beyond thrilled that my children go to such a wonderful school!

I am privileged to work as an employee at Sixes, and I am also a former parent times four. There is no greater elementary school in Cherokee County. (I have worked at several.) The safety and physical well-being of each student is as equally important as their academic success. School operations run at an optimal due to the diligence of the administration. I am responsible for car-riders, and I have been told by the police officer that frequent all the schools, we have the most proficient system of all the schools in getting children back to parents' cars in the afternoons. The teachers are phenomenal with hearts as big as Texas. They bring their gifts and talents of teaching to the classroom and it is evident their calling to teach. Sixes is a school that reflects the public school system doing it right.

The moment I got to know about Maestro Goslin’s concert, I was all set to attend it and treat myself with a magical experience. I grew up listening to his radio and television appearances and seeing him in person was a lifetime opportunity. His fingers play piano in such a magical way. Looking forward to listen to him again.
