Meet Charice Director

My name is Charice Vinluan, and it is a true honor to introduce myself as the Director of the newly built Goddard School of Garland. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve this wonderful community and to help create a school where children feel safe, loved, and inspired to learn every single day. For the past twenty years, I have dedicated my career to supporting young children and families. I began as a classroom teacher and eventually moved into roles as a mentor teacher, curriculum director, and director of admissions. Every step of that journey has shaped the educator and leader I am today. Outside of work, I’m a proud mom to two wonderful children. Being a parent reminds me of the trust families place in us, and it guides the way I lead our school with empathy and care. I look forward to getting to know our families and community partners as we grow a school that reflects the warmth and spirit of The Goddard School.

"We feel so grateful for The Goddard School^® and its teachers and school leaders! Our child has absolutely loved each day from the very beginning. He has grown so much socially, emotionally and academically. The balance of 1-on-1 and whole group activities is perfect. And we really appreciate all the pictures with lesson summaries so that we can discuss with our son and reinforce at home."
