"The commute east and north in the morning is brutal. You must leave your house by 7:45am at the very latest to arrive by 9. The commute after 5 is equally brutal. "

"It is horrible for commuting and the transportation services is terrible as well. The busses take a very long time to get here and ubers do not come too often neither. It takes about one hour and fifteen minutes to arrive to downtown Miami every morning Monday through Friday. I do not enjoy the drive as it is way too long. If public transportation would be better than maybe it would be worth it however it is not at all one bit right. "

I have two kids at JSR and since we started here it’s been amazing!My daughter started in 3rd grade and my son was fortunate enough to be here from the very beginning.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a staff member, I can honestly say that Dante B. Fascell Elementary is a truly special place to work and learn. Every day, I am inspired by the strong sense of family that exists throughout our school community. Students, parents, teachers, and staff work together to create a welcoming and supportive environment where every child is encouraged to succeed and shine. Dante has proudly built a legacy of excellence, celebrating decades of serving the community with dedication and heart. One of the things I love most about our school is the incredible administration. Their leadership, commitment to students, and support for staff create a positive culture that is felt throughout the campus. Our office staff is equally amazing—always friendly, helpful, and ready to greet families with a smile, making everyone feel right at home. The classrooms at Dante are engaging, innovative, and student-centered. Our teachers work tirelessly to create meaningful learning experiences that spark curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning. Students are actively involved in the learning process and are encouraged to think critically, collaborate, and grow both academically and personally. I am also proud of our school's commitment to STEM education and enrichment opportunities. Dante has earned prestigious STEM recognition and offers students a wide variety of extracurricular activities, including Robotics Club, STEM/STEAM Club, Math Club, Art Club, Chorus, Dance Team, Dream in Green, and leadership programs. These opportunities allow students to explore their interests, develop confidence, and gain skills that will benefit them far beyond the classroom. Being part of the Dante Dolphin family is an honor. It is a school where excellence is celebrated, relationships matter, and students are given every opportunity to thrive. I am grateful to work alongside such dedicated educators and staff in a community that truly puts children first.Other Review1mo ago26 Reviews - Tiny Steps Preschool III
