Discovery School vs. The Goddard School

Discovery School's mission is to provide a high quality, caring, learning environment for young children and their families. Discovery School is a child development center, in its truest sense.

We have concern for the whole spectrum of development, including social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth. Emphasis is placed on acceptance of the child as a special, unique individual with a particular learning style and set of abilities. Our goal is to meet each child's needs by providing stimulating and challenging activities, accompanied by teacher encouragement and support needed for the child's success.

The learning environment stresses hands on experiences and freedom to select activities.

We recognize that children need direct teaching for part of each day this is done in small groups and individually.

During these times, teachers prepare lessons around themes or projects to develop concepts, skills, language expansion and critical and creative thinking.

The Goddard School uses the most current, academically endorsed methods to ensure that children from six weeks to six years old have fun while learning the skills they need for long-term success in school and in life.

Talented teachers collaborate with parents to nurture children into respectful, confident and joyful learners.

The Goddard School's AdvancED and Middle States-accredited F.L.EX. Learning Program reaches more than 45,000 students in 430+ Goddard Schools in 35 states.

The Goddard School's comprehensive play-based curriculum, developed with early childhood education experts, provides the best childhood preparation for social and academic success.
