Owner
Hello and welcome to The Goddard School of Clarkston. My name is Heidi Marini. My Husband Dave, and I, are extremely excited to bring such a highly accredited school to the Clarkston area. As parents, we know how important it is to have a safe and nurturing environment for our children. We understand the importance of ensuring our children get the best start in life. Our passion for early Childhood Education led us to The Goddard School. Education is not a one size fits all. Children learn at different paces and in different ways. The Goddard School recognizes this and focuses on individual experienced based learning. We are excited to be part of the Clarkston Community and are looking forward to making a difference in the lives of children, their parents, and the community around us. Give us a call today to learn more. We look forward to meeting you!

GODDARD LOVE FROM FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

All expectations are exceeded by the facility but especially the staff. Researching and finding a team you're comfortable leaving an infant with for an entire day is no light task; however, Heidi and team have made each drop off worth it. You definitely get what you pay for here!

I love the facility, staff, and willingness to accommodate scheduling and individual children's needs.

We’re very happy with the school. Miss Katie is AMAZING, I love the hands on learning approach and how every fun activity they do help the kids in their learning journey

Preschool Classroom
Our experience at Goddard School of Clarkston has been wonderful - between the teachers, personal connection, cleanliness, curriculum, and the portal to receive updates on our daughter I couldn't imagine her being anywhere else.

What Teachers Mean to Me

Every member of the Goddard faculty has special, often extraordinary, gifts they share with their students. When a child comes home happy and can't wait to see their teacher the next day, tell us about it. Take this moment to celebrate your child's teachers!

LEARNING YOUR CHILD LOVES

We work tirelessly to ensure children thrive in a healthy, safe and warm environment. Within this secure and nurturing environment, children can discover their unique gifts.

Our programs go beyond academics and help children develop important social-emotional skills like kindness, empathy, responsible decision making and more.  

In our classrooms, creativity and curiosity blossom as children discover the wonder of learning. Through fun learning experiences (F.L.EX.®), your child will develop academic and social-emotional skills that will help them feel ready to take on the world.
