Both of our boys went to Goddard for 3 years and I can't say enough amazing things about the school and its staff. The boys have grown immensely with Goddard, the teachers are dedicated and loving and always willing to do whatever it takes to help make the child's start in life the best one possible. The on site owner is incredible and always willing to help wherever needed. When our boys left the school to attend Kindergarten, they both had tearful Goodbyes and are looking forward to come back in the summer for their great summer program. The daily activities are wonderful and always age appropriate and the kids love all the different events they get to participate in throughout the year. I can only recommend the Goddard school in Goodyear to anyone!!!

Our son has been a student at The Goddard School for a little over a year. I have been very pleased with the compassionate and personalized attention he has received. He is a bright and sensitive child, who needs to be challenged and stimulated, but also patience and care. This he has received in the very capable hands of the teachers at this school. I have especially been impressed with Mr. Ryan, Ms. Kim, and Ms. Katie. He is only 4.5, but is writing his name and some other familiar words, starting to sight read and spell words by sounding them out, and is doing simple arithmetic (and even basic "solve for X" problems). He will have no problem transitioning to kindergarten in the Fall. Thank you for caring for my son, seeing him as the unique and special individual he is, feeding his hunger for knowledge, and preparing him for what lies ahead! We will most certainly be enrolling his sister in the future. In addition to our son's specific experiences at the school, we have also had a very positive experience with the logistics of having our child enrolled at the school. Communication from every level of administration at Goddard is excellent. We receive a daily detailed report, communication regarding snacks they will have each day, a monthly newsletter, prompt information about any events or issues at the school, and also easy communication and administration regarding tuition payments. The school also has excellent school day enrichment (karate every other week, guest speakers, holiday themed events) as well as extracurricular events/activities (Family events and even a Parent's Night Out every other month)! We have been very happy with our choice of The Goddard School as our child's first educational experience.

There isn't enough I can say to to express how much we love the Goddard School. When our son was 2 months old we started looking for child care. We looked at four different places and after touring the Goddard School we knew this was the place for us. Our son started when he was three months old and still attends today - he is six. We loved how each child was transitioned into the next class room - they start visiting the class so they have a chance to become familiar with it before they are there all day. This made it not only easy for us but for our child to get used to the new setting and the new staff in each room. The staff at Goddard is simply amazing! My son loves going there and has to make his rounds to say hello to everyone. They are all are so caring and very good with the kids. Not only do they take care of them, they have lesson plans to ensure the children are learning as well. My son was and still is so excited to share with us what he learned each day. If you are looking for a place for your child to learn and grow and be taken care of by a well trained staff, then The Goddard School is definitely the right place for you and your family.

I am just blown away at the staff and the curriculum. Everyone at the school seems to know my daughter's name. They work so closely with parents on everything from potty training to behavior modification. The teachers and staff feel like an extension of your as a parent - I have always felt completely at ease knowing my daughter is in such a safe and nurturing environment. I was especially impressed with the building security and procedures - 2 types of verification (code and hand scan) to get into the building and strict sign-in/sign-out procedures. In addition to a high standard for basic curriculum, The Goddard School goes above and beyond to organize other special ways for our kids to learn about the world around them. The Summer Camp Program is always amazing with a new theme each summer and special visitors which enhance the kids learning experiences such as policemen, firemen, the zoo and a puppet theater. They work closely with community partners to offer so many different opportunities for new experiences - this year my daughter attended a karate class every other week at the karate school next to the school and a helicopter even landed in their parking lot which was quite an exciting day for the kids learning about the pilot. I wish The Goddard School had elementary schools - I would keep my daughter in their schools as long as I could because I know she is getting a top notch education from caring and engaged teachers!

This is my second grandson to attend Goddard Goodyear and I continue to be delighted by the quality, professionalism and nurturing that is evident from the minute I walk though the front door. Colorful student art and professional murals fill the walls and each classroom's window display conveys an impressive contribution to a seasonal or monthly theme. Speaking of windows, I always spend a few minutes watching the little ones playing and learning before I enter the classroom-- a gratifying and heartwarming experience. On Grandparents Day-- just one of the many special events that I've attended, I saw my almost-3 grandson in action as he and classmates went through their alphabet, counting, days of the week, classroom assignments and so much more. Wow! I wish all children could attend this phenomenal school!
