Hands down one of the best schools in San Luis Obispo county. The teachers, the staff, the principal all show a genuine love and care for their students.
Posted by a parent on 1/19/2024Dana School has some amazing teachers. Beyond that, I cannot say I would recommend this school in any way. The amount of bullying if your child is different in ANY way, is off the charts. The bias that comes from the Principal is disheartening and completely inappropriate in the school setting. We e
Posted by a parent on 5/7/2021Great teachers and staff , Awesome after school program too .
Posted by a parent on 8/31/2019I knew almost immediately after this principal started at Dana that this school was doomed. Bullying at Dana became out of control and it STILL continues! I didn't realize just how horrible she is until recently. I guess the reason for such a bullying problem is because the principal herself is a bu
Posted by a parent on 3/27/2015I'm not the type of person who writes reviews, but I feel compelled to write one because of what's going on at Dana. I would have rated it zero stars, but that was not an option. The problem at Dana IS the principal. I looked at the reviews here about Dana, and I noticed that UNTIL the current princ

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you are worried about your little one starting transitional kindergarten, do not fret. Mr. Hemen is an amazing teacher and has "kid magic" like no other educator that I have worked with. Our child had such a great year and to be honest, Im actually kind of sad myself that she can't go back to his class. I can't speak for the K-6 experience yet, but so far, we are happy with why we moved here.Parent Review1y ago - Lange (Dorothea) Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've had one daughter graduate from Dorothea Lange and another just entered Kindergarten this year. Our oldest went from being threated to be held back from her school in Nevada to becoming a top reader. She loved all of her teachers and counselor. Though in high school now, she has visited them several times and keeps in contact with several. Our K-schooler loves her teachers and loves going to school. The worst thing about Lange is the parking/drop off in the morning. The academic programs and teacher involvement are top notch. We absolutely love Dorothea Lange Elementary!Parent Review3y ago - St. Andrew's Academy
