Meet Ted Owner
Hello, my name is Ted Ray and my wife, Robin, and I are the proud owners of The Goddard School® located on Peachtree Industrial Blvd in Sugar Hill. We have been Goddard School owners since 2000. We live in Alpharetta and have twin boys (Both graduates of Goddard). Before opening our first Goddard School, I worked in Information Technology for 15 years. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and playing golf. While Robin was pregnant with our twins years ago, we recognized the need and demand for a quality alternative to standard daycare. We then decided to open The Goddard School®. Our mission here is to offer the absolute best in high quality childcare and education. Being an on-site owner, I welcome your comments and concerns. Thank you for the opportunity to share in your child’s growth and early childhood development.

All of the directors and teachers that we have encountered since our time at Goddard, have treated us like family. We absolutely adore this school.
We've had such a great experience at Goddard of Sugar Hill. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. The curriculum has done wonders for our son's development and fostering both his creativity and social skills.
Everything - the teachers/ the curriculum/ the staff / etc. - my kids love going to school and that is all a parent can ask for. When your child is comfortable and wants to go to school is key! I’m so happy we picked Goddard - they have become more a school, they are family!
Overall we have had an amazing experience. My son is thrilled to go to school every single day. He comes home singing new songs, telling me stories, and connecting with his classmates. I appreciate his teacher's patience and feedback.
