Our Teachers

I’m Anthony Busack, the proud onsite owner of your child’s preschool. In searching for a solution to invest in my desire to support my community, reduce business travel, and most importantly spend more time with my sons, I made the decision to own this Goddard School. Prior to Goddard, I worked as a global sales trainer where I realized how hard teachers work to ensure the success of students. Having graduated from HSE, and lived in Fishers since I graduated from the IU Kelley School of Business, we call this community home. My sons, Dominic and Enzo, currently attend Cathedral High School. Becoming the owner of our Goddard School has given me the opportunity to be more present during their formative years and is the true reason for my career change. For that, I will be forever grateful. Thank you for trusting Goddard as your your child's preschool and for affording me the opportunity to help grow and shape our future generations for years to come. - Mr. Anthony
