My son has attended The Goddard school for just over a year and I am beyond pleased with his progress. Sign language, Spanish, and yoga are just a few of the wonderful things he is taught on a daily basis. Also, there appears to be low turnover with teachers which IMO says a lot about the owner, Mr. Akhil and director, Ms. Teresa who are both fantastic. Security is top priority for Goddard and they do a great job with it. The teachers are all warm and friendly and always available to chat casually or discuss any issues/questions I may have. The school is extremely clean and well maintained, has a beautiful outside and large classrooms stocked full of age appropriate montessori type toys/ activities.
