Owner
Having started from humble beginnings, I believe in the philosophy of doing one’s best at what they love. “It’s my mission, as owner of The Goddard School, to help children grow and develop their educational skills to prepare them for the challenges of school and beyond.” As a father of three girls, I saw there was a need for a high-quality early childhood education program that provides a play-based learning experience in a nurturing environment. “Heartland is an amazing place to live and raise a family. We’re honored to offer an experience that helps shape the lives of so many children in this community.
