- AKAnna KellerOct 7, 20255.0Our child loves going to “school” at Goddard. She constantly talks about her teachers and friends. We love the curriculum and how it engages in experiences our child would not otherwise get. The staff is always communicating throughout the day, and weekly to update us on classroom activities and themes. We are quite happy with our decision to enroll our child in the Goddard school.
- JPJoseph PremMar 13, 20245.0We absolutely love The Goddard School and they take excellent care of our children - seeing that they are both engaged and learning at all times.
- KGKristen GayNov 16, 20205.0We cannot say enough great things about Goddard. The staff is the top notch and go above and beyond. Our first born just "graduated" from Goddard in August 2020. During her conferences, we asked the teachers how prepared she was for Kindergarten. Without hesitation, they said she was extremely prepared and was performing above average. I know she wouldn't be at the level she is at today without Goddard. Also, it is evident how much she loved her experience when she asks to go back on her days off. We love Goddard and are forever grateful for everything they have and continue to do for our family!
- CLCrystal LMar 15, 20195.0We have had a great experience with Goddard School. Great staff and an appreciated focus on social/emotional development!
- JRJoseph RingMar 22, 20175.0We have sent our son here from 18 months (2013) to 5 years old (2017). Very positive experience throughout. I have found almost everyone very respectful. Based on the lessons and content he shares with us after school, I've been impressed with everything he has learned. Disclaimer: this is our first child so my review is limited to my experience without necessarily knowing the quality of immediate alternatives. But overall happy customer! Based on a 6+ month waiting list that is primarily filled by siblings of existing "students" I would suspect others feel the same way. This review was completely unsolicited. I was looking up the address on google maps and wanted to share my opinion when I saw how few reviews they have received. Thanks, Goddard!

Our busy toddlers flex their independence as they learn to walk, talk and safely explore the world around them. Their curiosity and interests drive the classroom structure.
In our preschool and pre-k classrooms, we add more school preparation and readiness by focusing on academic skills as well as interpersonal and collaboration skills. Teachers support children as they investigate the world around them. Children learn how to ask and answer questions, work with others, navigate social situations and understand and communicate their own thoughts and feelings.
Our teachers expertly create supportive classrooms for all children to safely learn and test new social, academic and physical skills throughout a typical routine that includes morning and afternoon snack time, lunch, naptime, exploration time, small and large group experiences and outdoor play.

In many states, children who are not vaccinated because of exemptions based on medical condition or sincerely held religious beliefs attend The Goddard Schools. If your child is not vaccinated, please contact the owner of The Goddard School to inquire as to whether exemptions may apply as not all exemptions are recognized in every state. To ensure the health and safety of everyone, if an outbreak occurs and a child has not been vaccinated, they will be asked to stay at home.
What supplies do I need to provide for my child?
Please provide any necessary personal care supplies for your little one, such as diapers, wipes, a change of clothing and naptime bedding. For infants, please supply a crib sheet.
