GODDARD LOVE FROM FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

Everything. The faculty. Facility. Everything.
Nora's Father
Preschool Classroom
As parents, we have witnessed our daughter blossom as a two year old at the Goddard School. She is incredibly well cared for, loves going to school, and has developed strong relationships with the teachers. In addition, we have seen her take some developmental leaps, including a rapid growth in her vocabulary. We attribute that to the enriching curriculum that the Goddard School has in place. We couldn't be happier.
Eleanor's Father
Toddler Classroom
The teachers and owners are so nice and kind. I can drop both my kids off every day and feel confident that they are both being cared for while learning new and exciting things daily. We’re very grateful for The Goddard School and plan to have both our kids there through preschool. Thank you!
