We love the Goddard School San Clemente! We’ve been there since day 1 and I have nothing but great things to say. When my son first started he would barely speak, we had him in speech therapy. Being at Goddard for almost a year he’s talking in complete sentences. Not only is he getting the education but we feel the love the teachers and staff have for what they do and our children.

We love that we feel our children are in such a safe, caring, and clean environment. During this time, authenticity is everything and that’s how we feel about Goddard.

At The Goddard School San Clemente, we don’t feel like a number. Our teachers and administrators are very involved in the overall well being of our kids. They take time to answer the smallest questions and ensure our kids are learning and having fun!

What Teachers Mean to Me

Every member of the Goddard faculty has special, often extraordinary, gifts they share with their students. When a child comes home happy and can't wait to see their teacher the next day, tell us about it. Take this moment to celebrate your child's teachers!
