We are so happy with the professionalism, integrity, and communication we have had with The Goddard School so far. The educators are all extremely involved in our child’s developmental needs, and make it known they encourage growth in our child’s educational journey. I have complete confidence that their curriculum and overall care will prepare my child for success once his journey continues into kindergarten. We could not be happier with choosing The Goddard School for our child’s educational growth!Special shout out to Ms. Katie, Ms. Ella, and Ms. Allison for being the best of the best educators. We greatly appreciate your dedication to our child success stories. You all are truly a blessing. ?

I can not even put into words how blessed we were to find The Goddard School! We had both of our children enrolled for many years & each of them came so far. Our youngest didn’t talk at all at the age of 2 & within a few weeks at Goddard he was a chatter box. All the teachers & staff gave us complete reassurance our children were in the best hands between communication & their progress. I went from a stay at home mom to working a lot of hours, it was one of the hardest things I had to do. I don’t think I could of accomplished everything without everyone at Goddard! If I could keep my children here forever I would! Thank you everyone at The Goddard School ?

My wife and I were blown away with our daughter's development while attending Goddard. I would highly recommend to any parent considering sending their child to pre-school. Hands down the best Pre-K school around!

My son was attending this school for almost two years. He had 4 different teachers in that time. None have raised any issues at all. When he was moved to the tiger room we basically received negative feedback from the teacher every other day. In the month and a half he was in the room we not one time received constructive or positive feedback we only received negative. My son was so afraid of the teacher that he basically had a meltdown when I tried to take him to the room. What 3 year old cries save me from the teacher if everything is normal in the room and it's running properly? That same day we took him out after we complained to the director who basically insulted my accent. The entire time we spoke to the director she talked at us not to us. She kept repeating a rehearsed speech they must have received training on. We took our son out of the school on March 3 and we had already paid for the entire month and summer program and they told us they would not refund any of the money. Finally after my husband called and spoke to the owner and requested copies of our sons file 2 days later they refunded the full payment amount. On the Indeed site their own staff has described a negative work environment. I always thought Goddard had a good reputation but this place in Arnold MO lacks a lot of things not to mention one of the directors needs diversity training ASAP as she appears to believe she is superior to all non native speakers of English.

After enjoying an amazing in-home provider for our older two kids, we were kind of in a tough situation when our third child arrived and our beloved in-home care person had already gone back to her preschool teaching position. We finally found Goddard after touring a number of places. Immediately after the tour, we knew we had found the place for our son. Loved the atmosphere, the attentiveness, the communication, and the teachers. Expensive, but worth it, in our experience!
