What Our Goddard Village Is Saying

I'm constantly surprised by my child's vocabulary and what she picks up at school that I haven't covered at home. At 19 months she knows her ABC's, most all of her base colors, and is counting legably to 14. I couldn't ask for anything more from the school they are doing a great job in a health and safe environment. Would highly recommend the Goddard VanWA.
