The Goddard School
Preschool in Marriottsville, MD 21104
The Goddard School can make a positive difference in your child’s life. Our warm, loving atmosphere features a year-round extended-day program from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. Our program is designed to enhance the emotional, social, intellectual and physical development of your child from six weeks to six years of age. We also offer after-school enrichment and summer “camp” for children up to ten years of age.
Areas of growth and development are highlighted on our daily lesson plans, which our faculty brings to life in appropriate and attainable ways. Children are encouraged to progress at their own pace according to their individual needs and abilities.
Our state-of-the-art custom designed building has been planned to provide a safe, healthy and stimulating environment. Two separate playgrounds have been designed to challenge and delight your child at every age.
Our School has a wonderful underwater theme with murals painted by a professional artist. Our classrooms are named the Guppy room (6 weeks – 13 months, Infant 1 and Infant II), the Minnow room (13 months – 18 months, First Steps), the Turtle room (18 months – 24 months, Toddler), the Flounder room (24 months – 36 months, Get Set), the Seahorse room (24 months – 36 months, Get Set), the Angelfish room (Preschool), the Starfish room (Preschool), the Dolphin room (Pre-K) and the Shark room ( Pre-K and Before/After School program).
