Review: Goddard School

[Sympathetic teacher]

My son has been at Goddard for almost a year. Turnover is so high... but is that any different than the rest of the industry? I agree that all of the teachers who work there need to get paid more. Maybe the turnover would stop. Tuition was just raised. Did any of this go to the teachers? Most of the teachers there are wonderful and caring.

Unfortunately, Goddard Schools are BUSINESSES; emphasis on $$$$; none of which goes to the teachers. Turnover is high because we are often disrespected (from directors and owners) and rarely compensated for our skills and commitment to the children and their educations. You are better off hiring a nanny!

why are you worrying so much about spelling when the issues that she raises are what make me indignant, not the spelling. we know we all make mistakes when we tytpe and get excited. stop hating on this lady for telling the truth! go to another website and spew your venom there. if you don't have anything nice to say, get off the laptop sister!!

Darn good thing you chose not to pursue a career in early childhood education given your grammar, spelling,capitalization and punctuation!

We had been taking our daughter to Goddard. The teacher was wonderful and we are really going to miss her, but we had to take our daughter out of that school for some concerns we had as parents. When we tried to raise our concerns to the owner, they were not taken seriously. I would NOT recommend this school/daycare to anyone ever! I feel bad after reading all of these reviews and how badly the teachers are treated in many of the posts I have read. Had I read this, we certainly would not even concidered This school.

I agree that this school has not been good with children. New director is very rude and does not understand the pressure on teachers. They keep moving kids from their classes to other classes and these kids are upset and do not tell their parents. The new director is a racist and not at all fit to be a director of early childhood education school. They keep changing teachers every month or rather not able to keep good teachers... Don't waste your time here..

The new director is a racist?
