Bully-proofing your child
Welcome to The Goddard School® located in Third Lake, serving the surrounding towns of Central Lake County - Grayslake, Gurnee, Lindenhurst, Libertyville, Lake Villa and others.
We are David and Donna Raye, owners and on-site operators of our School located at Waterstone Place, just north of Washington Street and Route 45.
The opening of our School was inspired by our two children, who showed us the importance of the emotional, social, intellectual and physical development of children age infant through age six in a loving and caring environment. We are proud to bring the unique program and outstanding reputation of The Goddard School to Central Lake County Illinois.
We are open Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. year round, offering a variety of programs convenient for parents who want the proven advantages of a high quality preschool education for their children.
We thank all our parents for making our School so successful in just a few years. This has allowed us to complete an expansion of our facility and programs at The Goddard School located in Third Lake. Our new annex has four classrooms so that we may expand our programs for children six weeks to six years of age. The centerpiece of our expansion is an indoor gymnasium which is used for recreation as well as for special events. We also added an additional playground and courtyard area, as well as a Technology Center and Teachers Lounge/Resource Center. For convenience, we have more than doubled the number of parking spaces. We are proud to have built the most comprehensive preschool in our area.
The Goddard School is dedicated to providing the best possible environment for the education and development of your child. In addition, our full- and half-day programs offer the flexibility to accommodate your busy schedule.
At The Goddard School for Early Childhood Development, we can make a positive difference in your child's life. Our warm, calm and loving atmosphere features an extended day program designed to enhance the emotional, social and physical development of your child.

Design activities to meet each child’s individual needs.
Prepare a Daily Activity Report for parents about their child's activities, participation and progress.
