The Goddard School has been a fantastic place for our kids. The Summer Camp program this year (2025) was amazing. I liked that the kids were separated by age and I know my daughter enjoyed all the field trips they went on. The program was thought out and had a lot of learning opportunities in an interactive and fun way. Thank you!

My 3yo’s been attending Goddard (Cinco Northwest) for about 5 months now. His first language is not English, so when he first began attending the school, he was not able communicate with his teachers or classmates. However, Ms. Yvonne and Ms. Keila were very understanding, caring, and patient with my child. He quickly adjusted to the school routine, learned so much, and is so happy to go to school now. The teachers are loving in their teaching and disciplining of the students, and I love how welcoming the teachers are to their students every morning. The administrative staff- Ms. Alex, Ms. Nivvy, and Ms. Pam are all wonderful as well. They care for the well-being of children, and they listen to parents’ concerns. All in all, I appreciate that the school is consisted of loving and professional teachers and staff members. Most importantly, my son enjoys going to school!

I can not express how grateful we are to have our son the Goddard School. This specific location honestly stole my heart!
As first-time parents, we are originally ignorant of the different types of institutions. (Daycare vs. Early learning school). At 2 years old, we specifically began looking for a SCHOOL for our son. We initially enrolled our son at the Ivy Kids Silver Ranch. He was there for 6 months, and we received 0 feedback, updates, strengths and weaknesses assessed, and a curriculum (many of these things we were promised). It was a daycare, not a learning facility.
I reached out to the Goddard School and Ms. Nevie advised that they had an opening, and we met with Ms. Alexandra toured the school. Everyone was so welcoming, and they even allowed me to bring my son by to meet his teacher before the transition. Within 4 months, our son has learned the entire alphabet, can count to 30, and knows all of the different types of animals and their sounds! We were informed that after analysis and feedback from his teachers that he is ready to begin transitioning to the "Get Set" class! We are elated. We feel welcome. We feel secure. We can see through tadpoles all of the activities they work on daily with specific descriptions and breakdowns of the activities and identify the goals and objectives. The Goddard School has definitely established a high bar for our educational standards moving forward, and we are grateful to be part of the Goddard family.

1 year update!
Ms. Ana and Ms. Mari have both been tremendous mentors for our son. He has fostered relationships that I believe he will carry throughout his life! He feels so happy at school, comfortable and loved in all environments. My husband and I are constantly impressed by his ability to communicate with us and his ability to reflect on himself!
Choosing the Goddard School was one of the best decisions we made for our family. I can only hope that we continue to find like-minded institutions as our children continue to progress through their education.

We can’t speak enough about all the amazing teachers and admins at this school. They’re all incredible!!
Their pre-k program is stellar. Our daughter has gotten great confidence in her journey to read and write. Ms. Allison creates an amazing environment to learn!! She is a calm and kind educator and her experience shows.
Ms. Ana and Ms. Mariangelica’s 2-3yo class is also fantastic. Our son has thrived in that class under their guidance and care.
Ms Lily’s first step class teachers are always soo loving to the 1 year -18 month year olds. Our little guy barely even looks back when he runs in there for hugs. You can tell how well they love the kiddos.
There are so many other teachers we have loved so much there (Reyna, Aryana, Jessie, Magdi, Sally, Mariana etc.). We are thankful to have such a great Goddard family!!
