The Goddard School
Preschool in Norwood, NJ 07648
Welcome to The Goddard School located in Norwood! We are Ada and Anthony Vassallo, owners and on-site operators of this School.
The opening of our School was inspired by our two children, who showed us the importance of the emotional, social, intellectual and physical development of children ages infant through six-years-old in a loving and caring environment. We are proud to bring the unique program and outstanding reputation of The Goddard School to the community of Norwood, New Jersey.
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, offering a variety of programs convenient for parents who want the proven advantage of a high quality preschool education for their children. Our program is designed to enhance the emotional, social, intellectual and physical development of your child from six weeks to six-years-old. We also offer after-school enrichment and a summer “camp” program for children up to eight years of age. In addition to our standard curriculum, we incorporate the following enrichment programs into the children’s daily activities at no additional cost:
