McKinney I (Craig Ranch)

We had the best experience with this school. Our son loved going and learned so much in the short time he was enrolled before we moved. The staff are friendly and love on the kiddos well and I'm so impressed by what my son learned at such a young age. The staff is very communicative and knew everyone's names, including parents and siblings. We will be looking for another Goddard in our area for sure!

This school is EXACTLY what my daughter needed to thrive. The directors & teachers are approachable, responsive, and most of all engaged every day to guide & teach our littles through activities & fun. We are thrilled to have found a home @ The Goddard School - Craig Ranch.

Enrolling our two children at Goddard, which is less than 10 minutes from our house, was a stunningly easy choice reinforced by a deeply enriching experience. Both children have been part of the school since infancy, and while our son now attends Elementary School, he continues to benefit from the after-school care provided by Goddard.

We've found the environment to be nurturing and stimulating -the dedicated staff foster both academic and social development through diverse programs and activities, emphasizing early childhood development through play.

We've developed strong relationships not only with our children's teachers but also with the administrative staff, who greet us warmly, regularly socialize with us, and truly make us feel like family. Last year I won a chili cook-off at the school and I still cherish the "Spoon Trophy" given how...

We started at Goddard in August of 2015 with our first child. Our second child is about to graduate from the Junior K classroom. After over 8 years of attending this school, I can say it's the best there is. From the moment you walk inside, you know Goddard is different. You are recognized and greeted warmly. They know exactly what children need, and they work hard to provide quality care and education. Goddard understands that "play" is learning. And, in providing daily engaging and enriching experiences, they make kids love going to "school." Goddard consistently goes above and beyond in their care for children and their families. I will tell anyone who asks that "Goddard is the best. You will be so happy you sent your kids there."

I've had at least 2 children at Goddard since February of 2016. As parents of two sets of twins who often work long hours, it was important for us to find a place that loved our children and treated them like family. That is The Goddard School of McKinney at Craig Ranch. You can tell from the minute you enter the building that Ms. Tanny and the entire staff truly love children and see them as blessings to be enjoyed and cherished. They also happen to be teaching them valuable social, emotional, and traditional educational lessons along the way :)

There is no cold and institutional feeling when you walk through the front doors. Just cheerful greetings to parents and kids that sets a great tone for the start of the day. Each day is filled with age-appropriate activities that make the time fly by, and my kids come home with plenty of stories about their friends,...

My daughter has been going to Goddard for almost two years now and she has been thriving. The teachers are so hands on and compassionate. She has developed verbally, emotionally, and creatively through all their curriculum and activities. Love having these people a part of my village.

Great school!

We Love Goddard. My son has attended now for 2 1/2 years. They do so many things with the kids. He is constantly engaged. They just built a splash pad and are building a gym. I feel he has had a very well rounded start, which will prepare him well for preschool, then kinder.

We love Goddard and are thrilled with the quality of care and education they provide our children. After having bad experiences at other local schools, we are glad to have landed at Goddard. Not only are my kids happy, but the teachers and staff genuinely seem to be thriving there as well and I think that says a lot about the management of the school.
