Testimonials
Miss Anne and Mr. John,
You have provided Robert with a safe and loving environment for the past 4 years. It is with mixed emotions that we say good-bye to the Goddard School and you. Robert will be leaving behind the wonderful teachers that have provided him with many hugs and kisses and tons of love. Because of your school and your curriculum, Robert is well on his way to a wonderful and successful new beginning in elementary school.

Dear Miss Anne, Mr. John, Miss Beth and Miss Leigh Ann,
We just wanted to thank you for the great job you do and for making the past month so easy for us. I never thought I'd be so comfortable leaving Leah to return to work, but you all have eased this transition for us by all the extra things you do. It was so nice of you to send flowers to my job, but most of all it makes all of us so happy to leave Leah with people who genuinely care about her! We know that Leah loves to come to school, and we can see why! Thank you for being so smiley in the mornings and evenings. We are so glad we choose your school.

Dear Miss Anne and Mr. John,
Back in July of 2003 we dropped off our first born son, Joshua for his first day of school at Goddard. As first time parents we shed a tear ourselves as we watched him through the glass door look up in confusion as to what was going on. But soon there were no more tears and the Goddard School become part of our daily ritual. As time has changed and seasons have past we have forever developed a bond with you and our staff. It is going to hard to say goodbye. I cannot believe that it has been almost four years since that first day of school. Joshua is now graduating from your Kindergarten, and will be going on that big school bus. It is hard to explain to Joshua why some good things must end. He has enjoyed so much through the thoughts and words of your wonderful teachers. So on Josh's Graduation day we will be shedding another tear. This time it is because all of a sudden it seems like the present has become the past. We will always remember your school as the warm place you both made it. We refuse to say goodbye, but we will say farewell for now.
Love,
Josh's Mom and Dad
Dear Miss anne and Mr. John,
For the past three years you have all done an exceptional job of taking care of David and now Ryan. We never had a day go by where we had to worry about their quality of care level of education or amount of fun our boys are having while they learn. We know David is well prepared for Kindergarten. You're a tough act to follow!

Dear Families,
It has been my great fortune to have my son, Alec, in the Kindergarten program at our school. As a former Goddard Director, my motivation has always been that my children reap the benefits of my school. Alec's experience here in our Kindergarten has just been so terrific that I am further convinced of the importance of making a child's Kindergarten experience the best it can be.
I was amazed by Alec's ability to read his first book in December of this year. He thought it was pretty cool too! He also impressed me with his ability to point out several of the symbols of the United States. We were on our way home one day in the car and he started telling me about the American Eagle, the Statue of Liberty and Mount Rushmore. Socially, Alec was always very quiet and shy. Being part of such a small group gave him the opportunity to participate and make his voice every day. This has given him the confidence to speak up and has given him such a boost to his self-esteem. This is so very important to me, and it has helped him grow both academically and socially.
As one of the school's past directors, of course I am going to recommend this school to you. But as a parent of a child who has benefited greatly from Goddard Kindergarten, I can really speak from experience. I hope that your child joins the school for Kindergarten, and has the opportunity to reap the benefits of a really terrific program!

Dear Anne and John,
Just a little note to thank you so much for Connor's great years at your Goddard. You truly are two very special people who care so much for each of you "little people." Connor has learned so each one of his teachers. He especially loves reading and Spanish.
