What parents say about Granada Day School



My daughter LOVES Granada and I do too! We have been there for three years and could not ask for a more supportive and nurturing environment. The teachers and staff genuinely care about each student and get to know them individually. I feel that Granada truly is a blessing for the children and families in the community!



The Lord has given our family many blessings and one of those is having the Granada family in our lives. Having the peace of mind that one’s child is safe and cared for is priceless… GDS, you have not only met that need beautifully but also helped both our children grow and flourish both socially and academically through love, nurturing and patience.

Connie



The staff members are so sweet and attentive with both the students and the parents. They teach the kids about the love of Jesus, and really show it to us, as well. The curriculum is developmental in nature with lots of fun activities. The school is small with a good student/staff ratio.



I looked at so many schools for my 2-year-old and ended up enrolling her in Granada Day School. I have been so impressed by the teachers’ love and kindness. They provide a nurturing environment and then use this to give them an excellent education. My 2-year-old has been doing things in her class that my 4-year-old does in another private school now! The art program is wonderful and taught by a very capable and exposes the kids to many different...

Wonderful School! My twins absolutely love Granada Day School, they have exceeded my expectations. The teachers and staff are extremely gracious and my children are learning more than I ever expected would be possible in Pre K4. They will both be attending Kindergarten this year and we could not be happier.

Sonia M.



Parents bring your children here! You will never regret it. Thus school was my son’s first school experience attending their free VPK half-day program (and my first time as a stay at home Mom leaving my kid). So we both had a lot of fears, hopes, and expectations… The staff here has met all of them. I LOVE THIS SCHOOL! I would keep my kids here forever if we could. The quality of education and emphasis on fun and play...



Both our daughter and son went to GDS… It was the best experience we could have possibly imagined. Our children were more than prepared for their entry into private prep elementary school, and those administrators and teachers so remarked and were impressed. The loving, praying Christian environment cannot compare to any other campus in Miami. We love Granada!!!

Mary M.



I’ve had my daughter in daycare/school here since she was 7 months old and we LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Her teachers, Ms. Ruth & Ms. Ingrid and so amazing and my daughter loves them and loves going to “school!” I couldn’t recommend it more!!

Allison S.



Our son attended PK3 and PK4 at Granada Day School, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The campus is beautiful, peaceful, and well-maintained, with a fun playground and inviting classrooms. The teachers and staff are super caring and always kept us in the loop. They really got to know our son, ensuring he received personal attention and care. Our son learned a lot, both academically and socially, and truly enjoyed his time there. Plus, what sets Granada Day...

I cannot express how incredibly happy I am with this school! Only wish I would have put my kids in sooner. They treat you like family. The kids are so loved and learn so much. We are truly blessed.
