PJ & Jena Sautter - On-Site Owners PJ and Jena opened The Goddard School® located in Thornton in January 2007 and have loved getting to know all our families and watching the children learn and grow. The infants that joined our Goddard family when we opened our doors, including the Sautter’s daughter, are graduating this year. “It has been a blessing to have had those years with them,” adds Jena. PJ has a degree in Business and Jena has a degree in Psychology with an Elementary Teaching endorsement. They felt early childhood education was the best way to make a difference in their community and making the best use of their combined education and experience to make the lives of children, including their own, better. “We love Goddard's philosophies and feel it is important to be able to offer them to as many families as possible,” adds PJ. The Sautter’s love living in Colorado and taking part in all it has to offer, and their two children also love helping out at their Schools teaching the “younger ones,” as they say.
