Meet Giovanni

Meet Giovanni Owner

We are the proud owners of The Goddard School located in Adams Township. Our journey began with the inspiration of our three wonderful children—Giovanni, Leana, and Luciano—and we have been proud residents of Mars since 2007. My vision for the school is to create a nurturing, safe, and loving environment that supports children’s social, emotional, and academic growth, laying the foundation for their long-term success. I am excited to introduce The Goddard School's “Wonder of Learning” curriculum to Mars, offering children the opportunity to explore their interests and foster a love of learning through play-based, child-driven experiences that encourage their natural curiosity. My wife Caterina and I are actively involved in the community, especially in youth and high school sports, and we look forward to connecting with both the families we know and those we have yet to meet. Above all, the health and safety of our students will always be our top priority.
