One word- SUPERB! I have both of my kiddos at Goddard of Gaithersburg and can not say enough great things about the amount of love, care and attention they receive by their teachers, the directors and the owners! My son just graduated Pre-K and is headed to big boy school with confidence and equipped with every social and educational self help took and knowledge he might need. And to sum it up- Goddard of Gaithersburg is where you want your kids to be! Highest standards for learning through play and cleanliness combined with the most tender of care for the little guys.

After our initial acceptance into The Goddard School in Gaithersburg, Maryland, our experience took an unexpected turn. Despite the joy and relief we felt upon being accepted, the owner's subsequent decision to reverse this acceptance was both surprising and disheartening. This review reflects our experience, aiming to provide other parents with insight into our journey with this institution.Communication and Reliability: 1/5 The most challenging aspect of our interaction was the lack of consistent communication. After the excitement of acceptance, the reversal of this decision by the owner, without a clear explanation or sufficient notice, significantly impacted our plans and trust in the school's administrative processes.Transparency: 1/5 The reasons behind the sudden change in our acceptance status were not transparently communicated to us. A clearer understanding of the criteria and decision-making process would have been appreciated, as it would have helped us better prepare for alternative arrangements.Impact on Family: 1/5 The unpredictability of this situation placed a considerable strain on our family, disrupting our scheduling and causing unnecessary stress. The excitement of securing a spot, followed by the disappointment of its retraction, was a rollercoaster of emotions for us all.Overall Experience: 1/5 While we cannot speak to the academic or developmental aspects of The Goddard School, our pre-enrollment experience was far from satisfactory. The unforeseen reversal of our acceptance not only caused logistical challenges but also left us feeling valued less by the administration.In conclusion, our encounter with The Goddard School in Gaithersburg, Maryland, was unsettling and disappointing. For parents considering this school, we recommend seeking clear, written confirmations regarding acceptance and maintaining open lines of communication with the administration to avoid similar situations.
