Orange Reviews & Recognition

It simply doesn’t get any better than The Goddard School of Orange. The school leadership is top-notch and takes good care of its staff and students. They plan fun, enriching learning experiences and opportunities for families to connect with one another. The teachers are kind and caring, and it is clear that truly love our children. They look forward to going to school each day, and we drop them off knowing that they are in good hands. We couldn’t ask for anything more.

I also like the fact that they are learning emotionally as well, which is very important.
