Jack really enjoys going to school and he seems to be developing quite well. One of the main reasons we enrolled Jack at the Goddard School was because of the curriculum. We love the fact that the curriculum is held at a high standard.
I never worry about my kids being there. They are well cared for and they learn too. I am always impressed when my kids do something new they learned there.
All the teachers are fantastic, I know my children are being taken care of the way I would care for them, the curriculums are thoughtful and executed with care and purpose. The school itself is always clean and in order, rules are always followed and we always feel very comfortable speaking with any of the staff at anytime for any reason, they are so welcoming and happy to talk.
Top to bottom, the staff makes every effort to ensure our kids are happy and learning. The communication from the school is also wonderful.
