Connection starts the day during Morning Meeting time! ✨💙
Rooted in our Wonder of Learning™ curriculum, this meaningful gathering brings children together to build community, sing songs, share stories, and spark inquiry. Whether it’s a cheerful greeting, a weather check, or a thoughtful discussion, Morning Meeting sets a joyful and consistent tone — all while nurturing belonging, communication, and curiosity.
It’s a mindful start to meaningful learning!
The Goddard School
At The Goddard School, we're more than just a daycare. The Goddard School is a private preschool, offering childcare to infants and toddlers to pre-k.
Our programs are designed to nurture each child's curiosity in a safe and caring environment. Welcome to The Goddard School! Our goal is to be a resource for families and a community where parents can share information and learn from each other.

Today, our schools celebrated Juneteenth through meaningful activities, vibrant art projects, and thoughtful reading. We’re proud to honor this important day by recognizing the significance of history, freedom, and unity within our school communities. ❤️💛💚

To the dads who show up for drop-off, story time, snack duty and everything in between, Happy Father’s Day 💙
Thank you for being such an important part of our Goddard Village!

It’s amazing how much can change in a school year — new skills, new friendships, and so much growth 🥹
Whether it’s their first day this year or their very first day at Goddard, we’d love to see how far your little one has come.
Drop your side-by-side photos in the comments for a chance to be featured and celebrated with our Goddard family!

This weekend we celebrated our 21st anniversary* by showing our appreciation for all the teachers, from 2003 until today, who are responsible for making our school the special place that it is! The sun came out just in time, the barbecue lunch was delicious, and everybody stayed for the reunions and the hugs and the laughter. The kids were not the only ones to enjoy the new playground! We ❤️ our teachers!
*It was originally meant to be a 20th anniversary reunion in the fall of 2023, but the playground reconstruction meant we wanted to and then needed to wait 😆
