"The Goddard School is a great place for my son! He has learned so much for the short time that he has been in the Crazy Crab classroom. I'm so happy that in the move to Edwardsville that there is a new Goddard School to continue the excellent educational foundation that he has gained. We can't wait for the school to open!" ~ Michelle R.
"A 'quality day care facility' does not even come close to describing The Goddard School in Edwardsville. To me, it is an oasis for infants and toddlers to play, create, learn and mature to their highest potential. My three-year-old son has been attending the school for seven months, and it is crystal clear Goddard's effect on him. The first change I noticed was an increase in his maturity in social settings (specifically a politeness and an acknowledgement of others) that I haven't seen much in children his age. He also, quickly, showed an interest in learning how to read words just a few months after he enrolled. Finally, I believe Goddard has the approach and the balance right in their curriculum. On the days my son attends Goddard, he comes home very happy and calm, as if all of his curiosities and toddler energy have been well satisfied. Goddard definitely stands in a class of its own." ~ Laura B.
"Our time at The Goddard School was wonderful from the very beginning. We believe this school offers an affectionate, nurturing environment while still preparing our son for the structure of kindergarten. His teacher, the director and the owner treated our son and us with a great deal of respect and kindness. Our son’s academic, social and emotional growth was remarkable during his time with the school. His teacher always went out of her way to discuss his successes, concerns or interesting stories from his day. We felt the communication between the parents and the teacher went above and beyond expectations." ~ Mike & Stephanie R.
"In the short span of eight months he has gained an immense amount of knowledge about reading, writing, math and social skills. More Importantly, he has begun to love learning. The teachers know their likes and dislikes, passions and fears. They express honest concern for their well being if they have been ill or are sad, as well as interest in their outside of school hobbies and vacation experiences. I am thrilled with the experience that he has had at The Goddard School." ~Jill W.
