His own daughters are his inspiration, which led him to open the Goddard School in Norwood, NJ. He is passionate about creating a place where children not only feel secure, but also develop a lifelong love of learning. Every morning, Mr. Anthony is there to personally greet each child and parent, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you walk through our doors. Many of the children love to end their day by giving him a “high-five,” a testament to the strong, positive relationships he builds with each child.
