Meet Tarika Owner

Before joining the Goddard family, the healthcare and IT industries had my heart as a standards representative. However, with the birth of my children came a passion for early childhood education, and that’s where my “heart” work began with The Goddard School. Guiding children to learn through play, explore their feelings, and express their wants, needs in a nurturing, enriched, five-star school carry out my passion for contributing to education. If you are planning for a year, sow rice; if you are planning for a decade, plant trees; if you are planning for a lifetime, educate people. - Chinese Proverb
