Meet Kam Owner

Kam has proudly owned and operated The Goddard School since its opening in 2008, but his connection to the school runs much deeper. Building the school was a personal commitment—rooted in his love for family and his belief that every child deserves a warm, nurturing place to learn and grow. As a parent of two Goddard graduates, Kam understands firsthand the importance of a safe and supportive early-learning environment. His dual perspective as both an owner and a parent shapes the empathy, care, and high standards he brings to the school each day. Kam holds a Bachelor of Science in General Science from the University of Oregon, with minors in Biology and Chemistry. He leads with heart, humility, and dedication to creating a place where children feel safe, supported, and inspired. The Goddard School proudly serves the communities of Friendswood, League City, Pearland, and Alvin.
