Welcome to The Goddard School located in Goodyear! The Goddard School can make a positive difference in your child’s life. Our warm, loving atmosphere features programs designed to enhance the emotional, social, intellectual, and physical development of your child from six weeks through Kindergarten.
There are dozens of reasons to choose The Goddard School for your child. Here are just a few:
	
		- We hire credentialed lead teachers who write their own curriculum based on developmental guidelines. This allows them to get to know the children in their class and create a learning experience that fits with their needs and interests.
		- We maintain lower ratios than the state requires and our health and safety standards far surpass state requirements.
		- In addition to our Educational Director, the on-site owner is in the School every day to help ensure the best learning environment possible for your child.
We offer a year-round, extended-day program from 7 am to 6 pm, Monday through Friday. Areas of growth and development are highlighted on our daily lesson plans, which our faculty brings to life in appropriate and attainable ways. Children are encouraged to progress at their own pace according to their individual needs and abilities.
