My daughter has been a student at The Goddard School since she was two years old, and has been going there ever since. She attended the private kindergarten program (she was 4 turning 5 in November so she couldn`t go to a regular public school yet because of her age) and graduated this last June. So glad we decided to do private kindergarten! My daughter recently tested at a second-grade reading level, when she is technically (because of her age) should be in kindergarten! Needless to say, she will be going to the first grade this upcoming year! It truly is a school not a daycare. We absolutely Love the Goddard school! It truly is like a family there, my daughter has grown up with the other kids there, and have play dates regularly! The teachers and staff are amazing especially Miss Nazlin, Tiffani, and Miss Lasean! It is very clean and organized. My daughter also attends the summer camp program, and also will be using them for before and after school care. If I could give them 10 stars I would!!!
