Simpsonville Reviews & Recognition

Our third child is going through Goddard at Five forks. The owners of this Goddard have implemented an incredible culture. The Director is very engaged in every stakeholder of the school, from the teachers to the assistants to the students. The curriculum is engaging and challenging, and our kids are thriving. When our oldest finished pre-k and transitioned to public school kindergarten, she genuinely missed Goddard. I wish our Goddard was bigger so more kids could take advantage of it!

The communication is superb, the teachers are friendly, knowledgeable, and fun, and the whole atmosphere is happy. We truly appreciate the dedication and care taken by everyone in the building, especially having started a child at Goddard during a pandemic. Our son comes home every single day asking to go back to school, and this is the most important way to begin his many years of education ahead. THANK YOU!

The teachers at Goddard are extremely caring, and patient with each child. We love that all ages follow a curriculum, even the babies. I know when we send our child to school that she is learning, being very well cared for, & being shown a lot of love.

Hannah's Mother

Infant Classroom

Our family loves Goddard! We have been going there for over 10 years and we have been very pleased. Not very often can you find a school that has teachers that are nurturing and also prepares your children for elementary school. I would not change a thing.

The Goddard School is part of our family. We love the teachers and office staff and know that they care about or child and their wellbeing. Our daughter is excited to come home every day and tell us about her activities at school. Even with the pandemic the school has done a good job of communicating with us. We recommend Goddard to anyone who asks!

We are very blessed that my two kids are able to attend. They both love their teachers and are excited about what they are learning. They cannot wait to tell me what they worked on at school when I get home. The structure, academics and individual attention each kid receives is wonderful, I can't say enough about it. I love to see the teachers love on my kids. We are grateful for each teacher there!

We love Mary and Kristina and how much they are patient and kind with our 3 year old. He loves them and this has been a big relief when choosing a school to attend.

Walter's Mother

Pre-K Classroom

The Goddard School is my only child’s 1st school. And everything here in the US is very new to me. So we were very anxious while sending my daughter. But I think it is the best decisions we took. Amazed at the COVID precautions taken for such small kids, the admin staff were always always very warm and welcoming. The teachers are amazing. It’s not a joke to handle sooooo many kids at a time for the entire day. They are all fantastic!

Samyra's Mother

Thomas & Miles's Mother

The teachers, administrators and owners at Goddard have become an extension of our family. They strive to create an environment focused on enrichment, inclusivness and kindness. Our girls have flourished under their guidence and Goddard has provided a foundation for academic and personal success as they enter elementary school.

Lauren & Eve's Mother

Before/After School Program

We have been so pleased with the staff and the curriculum at the Goddard school. The teachers are incredible and our children transitioned so smoothly and have made sweet friends. Even though they are in pre-school and kindergarten, they are learning above their age level and will be well prepared for primary school.

I absolutely love the Goddard School. We just moved back to the US from 2 years in Germany and my daughter is thriving. She mostly speaks German but her English has significantly improved. She has enjoyed all the activities and her teacher Ms. Katelyn is amazing, communicates, and my daughter loves her.

Pre-K Classroom

My daughter just finished kindergarten at The Goddard School and has learned so much.

Zoey's Mother

Kindergarten Classroom

We like how so much of what you do with the kids during the day is goal oriented and based on typical childhood development. You tend to do things we never would have thought of with our young son! We feel that he is experiencing a lot in the days he is at school. The updates, emails, and interaction with teachers at drop off and pick up are also great.

Everett's Mother

Infant Classroom

I feel like Goddard helps expose our kids to more educational content then if they were to stay home and get to interact with classemates that will help prepare them for elementary school.

Michael & Catherine's Father

Goddard Graduate

I have been thrilled with the academic development of my daughter; the personalized and play-centered approach to teaching that Goddard use is outstanding! I also love the highly trained teachers and how readily available they are to discuss my child's progress or difficulties with me.
