We loved everything about Godard! Everyone, whether our son’s teachers or not, know my son by name and greet him everyday. You can tell that they just care and throughly enjoy be there. Also, most importantly to us as parents, is the education he is receiving everyday. We, overall, love The Goddard School in Cordova and would tell anyone who is looking for child care.
