Bethesda Reviews & Recognition

I finally put my daughter into a daycare at 4 so that I could get her prepared for kindergarten and I felt that the Goddard would be a good fit for her. Best decision ever. I know it's more in regards to costs but the curriculum is great and my daughter has excelled in such a short period of time. I highly recommend the school.

The level of engagement teachers have with our child is much higher than we experienced at other centers. They have taken the time to get to know him and work hard to help meet his needs. Even the teachers in other classes know and care about him. Thank you!

I love love love Goddard! Of all the things I can count in the list, I think the teachers and administrators would make it to top. They are so understanding, caring and you do not sense anything “commercial”. You know that they do care about your child as their own. I also love the diversity in school, from the staff to student mix. It is also very safe.

It is a great school. Our daughter’s enjoy going to school. The school’s administration developed a very immersive learning environment. My children were able to see chickens hatch in their classroom. The teachers are kind and they teach, they don’t just watch our children. It’s also a family environment, the parents and teachers work together. We really enjoy the school.

We have had an incredible experience at the school with our daughter. Each teacher that she encountered provided great educational insight and developmental tools for our daughter. The school communicates very transparently to the community and handled the tough challenges of the pandemic very well in our view.

The teachers and support staff are energetic, kind, thoughtful, and attentive to students' needs. The entire family is welcomed into the Goddard community as well. I can not say enough wonderful things about this school. I'm so glad my son (and soon my daughter) is a part of the Goddard school. He is thriving academically and socially since attending for only a few months.

My son is learning so much in only a few short months! He just turned four and was able to write his name all by himself! The best part is how proud he was of himself, the confidence being built into him everyday is amazing. I am excited to continue to see what The Goddard School will offer and provide for him.
