GODDARD LOVE FROM FAMILIES LIKE YOURS

The Goddard School has provided our child a safe and loving environment to learn and grow. The curriculum is diverse and we love that other languages such as Mandarin are taught. I cannot compliment Ms. Laura enough on how she has handled the pandemic. She communicated with us regularly and I never feared for my child's safety.
Alexis's Father
Preschool Classroom
The Goddard School of Tysons is an amazing place for kids. The on-site owner, Laura, as well as all the administrative staff and teachers are the best of the best. They're always looking out for the best ways to engage and educate the kids, but they also understand that the ages they're dealing with require a lot of nurturing and caring. We love Goddard, and couldn't imagine our kids getting anything better.
