My son went to a private school at kindergarten and 1st. In that 2 year span, he never learned how to read. They just collected money. He started Danube this year at second grade and in only 8 months, he’s reading!!!! I can’t believe they are 4/10. They should be higher. Teachers are incredible, principal is a caring soul and even the office workers are the nicest ladies in the world. Best choice I have ever made is taking my kids out of private school and into Danube.

This place is acoustic. Their ratings for test scores and academic progress is egregious.

This is a great school.The principal Mrs.Free is very efficient, dedicated and such a nice person. The staff is great especially Ms.Rhea is very polite and cooperative. Teachers are great, especially Mrs.Wiltfong, a fourth grade teacher very efficient and adorable hardworking teacher. No doubt,, this is a great school in Granada Hills.

So glad I did my research before sending my son here over 2 years ago now. I'm very pleased with my decision, they have a YMCA on site, great after school programs, Mad Science that my son absolutely loves and an overall sense that they really do strive for excellence and a family feel. Mrs Mahalatti noticed a little trouble with my son's reading and recommended him into a reading program which was tons of help.
