Charlotte (Ballantyne) Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • We LOVE the Goddard School. My kids are happy, engaged, and learning far above their age demographics. The staff is so friendly and nice. Every teacher and employee at the school treats us as though they are my children's teachers and caregivers, even if they aren't in their classes. They are exposed to amazing resources and activities. I feel such a sense of relief being able to leave my kids at such a safe and wonderful environment every day.
