The Goddard School

I absolutely love Goddard Lake Forest for my son. As a parent, I want the best for him and believe me, I’ve done my research in looking for the right school. This school exceeds my expectations with their faculty, curriculum, and cleanliness of their classrooms and playground areas. I appreciate how much they genuinely care about my son. At drop off, I can see how kind and truly excited his teachers and the other faculty are to start their day with him.

I specifically love his teachers. The activities they create for the kids are amazing and I know he is getting the opportunity to learn in the best possible environment. I also appreciate his teachers taking the time to send me so many pictures of him during the day. It makes me feel included. His teachers always give me an update on his day at pickup as well. They are also so willing to accommodate any of my specific...

The Goddard family is truly one of a kind. This school is a 25 minutes drive for us but we're willing to make the trek. We fell in love with the admin team and teachers when my older daughter joined their pre-school program (age 3). She (now age 6) still talks about her experience with the teachers and all the wonderful kinds she learned. The facility is clean, inviting, and well-maintained. We now have our youngest daughter (age 3) who is just having the time of her life.

My child just hit her 1 year mark with The Goddard School and I could not be more happier with her progress. Ms. Maria showers her class with love and kindness. My baby looks forward to seeing her everyday. When problems do arise she spends time talking with me so we are both on the same page which is greatly appreciated. I love all the STEM activities they do weekly, this kiddo loves science and I know that is one of the reasons why. I look forward to watching her grow at Goddard.

My kid was happy in this school. Teachers are friendly. I glad that I found this school for my daughter.

“We absolutely love Goddard Pre School! From day one, the teachers and staff have been so warm, nurturing, and dedicated to creating a fun and safe learning environment. My daughter has grown so much—socially and academically—and she looks forward to going to school every day. Her teachers, Ms.Vivian and Ms. Carorl are truly amazing! They are patient, kind, and always go above and beyond to make learning engaging. I can’t recommend this preschool enough for any parent looking for a caring and enriching place for their child!”

We love school. All very kind and polite

Love Goddard. The staff has been amazing and they treat my little one as if she was their own.

This Goddard- lake forest- stands out for its nurturing environment, where every child is valued as an individual. With a focus on fostering creativity, curiosity, and social-emotional growth, the curriculum is designed to engage young learners through hands-on activities and play-based learning. The staff is highly trained, compassionate, and dedicated to providing personalized attention, ensuring that each child feels supported and inspired. The preschool’s welcoming, safe space encourages exploration and discovery, setting the foundation for a lifelong love of learning. Families rave about the sense of community and the positive impact it has on their children's early development. We were all sad when my daughter graduated last year but thankful we still get to see everyone we love since my son is still there :)
