McKinney I (Craig Ranch)

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.

This school (specifically this location) has helped my son is many ways. All of the teachers are amazing and very attentive the my kid's needs. My son transitioned from a Montessori to Goddard and I have seen such a huge improvement. The director Tanny is wonderful. 10/10 school!

Without exaggeration , I selected Goddard Mckinney after visiting 20 pre schools in the area. You guys have been wonderful , very accommodating to my child's needs , very helpful and kind. I LOVE all the teachers specially Ms. Sharon has been wonderful. She is the best teacher a child can have. My son got really attached to her he will go give her a hug everyday 😄 She is very sensible and genuinely cares for every child. I am definitely coming back whenever possible for us.

There is so much to love about Goddard McKinney! Low staff turnover, excellent teachers and staff, fabulous Harvest lunches (that my toddler eats enthusiastically), socialization, monthly billing, fun mixers and school fairs, art projects, pictures sent daily about what my kiddo did during the day... so many great things. Also, Summer Camp programming was a blast!

Hands down THE best preschool in McKinney! The curriculum is outstanding and has so many 'extras' included in the price. My kids are learning all of the basics, plus yoga, Spanish, Sign Language, chess, and computer skills just to name a few. They keep ratios low, so they have the time to focus on each students development. Very low turnover for lead teachers. It is outstanding!

My last of two daughters just graduated from The Goddard School in McKinney this Summer to begin Kindergarten. I first enrolled both of my daughters in January 2012, so I believe four and a half years of sending my children to The Goddard School gives me a bit of an experienced, educated opinion of the school. In short: the school is nothing short of spectacular! Both of my daughters have been greatly enriched by their experiences and well-prepared for elementary school, if not exceedingly so.

The owner of The Goddard School, Robbin Wells, takes a world class and hands-on approach to educating children. For example, my youngest daughter, at only four years old, was able to play chess every bit as well as I can as an adult! This is because Robbin brought in a professional chess coach to teach the Pre-K and Junior-K classes. I myself was a little skeptical at how...

When we moved back to the DFW in July, my husband researched the area to see which would be the best Goddard our son to transfer to, so we can move to that area. We had to choose between the Goddard in McKinney and Allen. We choose the one in McKinney because of the owner, Robbin. We did talk to both schools, but the background and what the school offered, McKinney at Goddard, we knew was the best choice. Our son started at The Goddard School in McKinney in July and it turned out that this school is beyond AMAZING and met beyond our needs. They make this school feel like we are also a family. We do activities outside of school time. I love it! Prior to attending The Goddard School, my son attended other childcare (Goddard in Friendswood, Carpe Diem in Frisco, etc.) Our son may have enjoy going to school there, but the educational experience and social interaction was not as...

Great teachers and great administration! Our daughter loves her teachers and is thriving in The Goddard School's environment. The administration does a wonderful job providing great activities outside of the normal classroom curriculum and are incredibly flexible with our family's crazy schedule.
