Our School’s Vision:

The Goddard School is a preschool that provides research-based, high quality, play-based learning which promotes positive social and academic success for a diverse group of learners.

We empower our students by encouraging them to expand their knowledge by exploring more opportunities through our fun enrichment programs as well. No matter what level your child is working at, we hope to provide a curriculum that promotes creativity, independence, critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, and analytical skills; skills they will carry with them throughout their future academic success.

In the everyday interactions, we encourage students to make meaningful connections with peers, gain self-confidence and self-esteem, and explore interests, experiences, & activities that the students enjoy. Our staff will work to provide nurturing leadership and support, which will facilitate an environment that encourages inclusion and differentiated instruction to meet the individual needs of each student. We will accomplish this by working collaboratively with one another, parents, and administration to provide each student with the tools they need to become active learners. We strongly believe with a close and collaborative partnership, together we can make Goddard an even better place for students to learn, grow, and achieve. Together our goal is to create a learning environment that effectively empowers creativity and diversity, while providing our children with the skills and excellence they need in order to be successful life-long learners.
