The Goddard School of Dacula

I have two kids currently enrolled at Goddard School Dacula and they are thriving. I love that everyone there truly cares about the well being of my children. Any concerns are welcomed and addressed accordingly. I find comfort knowing my kids are safe, cared for and receiving a great educational instruction. Having one child enter school after being home for two years and another enter as an infant made me a nervous wreck. But from the front office to the teachers and support staff everyone makes you feel at ease.

We love the Goddard School Dacula. Our oldest has been there since he was in the infant room and now he’s almost 3! Now we have our second there and they have so much love for their teachers. They love going into “school” everyday and love their friends. They seem to be way ahead of other kids their age as far as speaking and learning. I feel this is largely in part to the Goddard school. The front staff is welcoming, compassionate, and gracious. I really feel management listens to feedback and takes it to heart to make the daycare a better place for students and parents.

We also enjoy the extra curricular activists the school does sometimes like movie night and ice cream day. It’s a great way to meet some of the classmates parents and have a chat.

My son was born early, the thought of handing him over to strangers almost killed me… y’all…. Those “strangers” have become like family! I seriously cant praise this establishment enough, Natalie was one of the first to love on my baby boy and get him adjusted to daycare life… she is definitely one of his favorites, she (deservingly so!!!) moved out of the classroom and into the front office where she continues to be amazing, my baby (now 15 months) walks to her office to wave bye bye!
he blew her a kiss as we left today! She is there to greet us in the morning and she totally starts his day off in a happy mood!!
I could write a book lol!! All of the teachers and staff are AMAZING, you will not be disappointed in registering your child here!!!! Thank you Goddard of Dacula for being AWESOME!!

The Goddard School of Dacula is truly a phenomenal school!!! I feel so blessed to have found this wonderful diverse school for my child. This was my child's very first time going to school at 4 years old. It is such a relief for me to be able to drop my child off and confidently know that my child is safe, will have a great time learning and at play while being guided by the best teachers Ms. Nicole and Ms. Melody who truly care and love their students. Also, the directors Ms. Julie, Ms. LaToya to Ms. Morgan who greets everyone every day with a smile while buzzing me in to pick up my child from class they are ALWAYS pleasant, and kind and will go over and beyond to assist if I ever need anything or have questions. Having positive support from my child teachers, Directors, and staff from Goddard Dacula like this being a single mom having to leave her child for the very first time at a school breaks all fears and gives me the confidence that my child is safe and will receive the positive fundamentals of going to school.

Those jitters and fears that moms tend to have when their child starts school - I must say have been broken and do not exist at Goddard Dacula. It feels good and with great confidence to say it is a wonderful experience for my child and myself.

After doing extensive research at other schools in the area, I am so blessed I chose the best, The Goddard Dacula school for my child. This school has truly exceeded all of my expectations and beyond. The most important aspect of it all is that my child is HAPPY, learning, and talks very highly of the teachers Ms. Nicole, Ms. Melody, and the kids in the class. It is also a bonus to receive the reports daily via email that shares what was learned with a picture or video of my child in action learning or at play. Thank you to the staff at The Goddard Dacula for making our very first school experience the best!!

Both our daughters attend The Goddard School of Dacula and there isn’t a better place out there.

The level of teaching is high and is often noted when my daughters are ahead of their peers (who do not attend the school) in their speech, writing, and reading. Another important factor to us was that our children have “late birthdays” and we didn’t want to delay their education. Goddard being a private school allowed us the opportunity to not delay their education and we have not regretted once!

We receive daily photographic updates accompanied by a descriptive caption that makes us feel like we are beside our child as they learn. The accessibility to communicate with the staff presents no obstacles as they are always readily available to answer any and all questions. When a commitment is made to follow up, that commitment is kept. The entire staff, regardless of their role at the school interact with the children in order to establish a relationship. This approach creates a warm welcoming atmosphere as we walk the halls (dropping off and picking up) with our children and they greet other teachers throughout.

The school also offers extra curriculum activity on site during school hours such as dance and play ball (that introduces your child to a variety of different sports) which both the girls love. The dance class also has an end of year recital which is a heart pleasing experience to watch what your child has been working on.

Throughout the year events are held outside of school hours to continue the growth of that family atmosphere this location does so well to establish. They have had movie nights and ice cream socials just to name a couple.

Cleanliness is made a priority and it is appreciated and can be seen from the moment you walk into the door. Kitchen area is always nice, bathrooms are always nice, the outside play areas are maintained, and the class rooms are kept up as well.

The front desk staff are amazing. We have been attending this location for two years now and there has never been a single day that we walked in and weren’t greeted with a smile!

Bad days do not exist at The Goddard School of Dacula!

My daughter attended the Goddard School Hamilton Mill-Dacula over the Summer for their Summer Camp program. She absolutely loved her experience here! She enjoyed their in house field trips from a magician, to the Hip Hop dance instructor, to the Kona Ice truck to name a few. The curriculum exceeded my expectations as the lesson plans incorporated many STEAM oriented activities for her to do each week. Everyone we encountered were so kind and professional, from the front office, to the teachers. They always made my daughter feel welcomed and cared for. Having her attend The Goddard School Hamilton Mill-Dacula really made me as a father feel secure in my decision to enroll her in their program.

My family is so grateful that we found this school. My son, Lucas, is about to be 3 years old and this was his first time in a real daycare/school.
He’s very attached to us and we were very worried it wasn’t going to work out.
The first week was tough ☹ he cried a lot. It was sad leaving him like that but everyone at the
Goddard Dacula's team was so kind and professional. We felt welcomed and most importantly, they cared for my son.
Tracy, the teacher, was so patient with my boy and she still is! She even called me on the fourth day to let me know that he didn’t cry and that he was finally doing well.
I When I pick him up now, he’s always so happy. Love that they provide you with a daily report with everything that my son does during the day and what he’s learning. The school has a big playground an indoor gym. Always looks clean.
We feel happy and secure with our decision of enrolling our son at The Goddard School Hamilton Mill-Dacula.

My daughter has been in this school since an infant and she is 2 now. My wife and I love the care she has received. she is getting a GREAT head start. The teachers have been great at preparing us on the the next steps she should be going into (like teething suggestions, walking, and when she went though biting stages and so on) we are very impressed with how much they have helped us. This school give our child lots of attention and she loves it. Sunshine the school owner is AMAZING!

Five star experience for my granddaughter who loves going. Staff is exceptional, school is always clean, great program and the afternoon updates are nice to get. So glad we got in

My wife and I currently have two children enrolled at this school. The teachers are very helpful and all staff is warm and friendly. Love the administrative team, Sunshine and Stacey are fully vested in their program and school and genuinely care about the families in their program. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who asks. I feel great knowing my child is safe and secure in one of the best schools in Dacula.

My sons goes to this school and it we all love it they are helping one of my sons with his homework after school and he has been improving so much on his math and reading skills. I am very impressed with the amount of effort the teachers have put into my son, I have spoken to other parents in the after school program and it’s not just my child but any that needs extra help. My other son is 3 and truly loves his teachers. He can’t wait to get to school. He is learning so much only wish my other son had been able to attend this school at an early age. Sunshine the owner is amazing she always has a smile on her face. I only wish I could give the school more stars.

I and my wife have had both of our children enrolled since they were infants at this school.
We can proudly say that hands down this school is the best educational value for the money.
I looked into other schools in the area but this school has things that my wife and I really found to be important when considering a school for our two girls. The smaller class size, lower ratio and one to one care that our daughters receive give us the piece of mind we need while we are at work. Knowing that my children are not only enjoying themselves but also learning in the process as a parent is something we really looked for while searching for a school. We also like that both the On-site owner and Director are at the school daily and if are ever needed are friendly and available to answer any questions we have. I would definitely recommend this school and my wife and I look forward to a long partnership and seeing our children grow in the program.

The staff is very friendly, loving and caring. i was scared to send my child away from my care but it was time to let them fly but they fell in love with their teachers and have done great. They have done really well and have learned way more then we could of imagined. thank you goddard school dacula!

My son was at a different school before PreK this year at Goddard School Dacula, and was really struggling behavior wise as well as academically. We had heard wonderful things about Goddard & thought it sounded just like what he needed. Since attending, he is a completely different child! His behavior at school is amazing (rainbow most days) and he is easier at home as well. I know Miss Julie & Miss Becca dont put up with nonsense! :) Academically, he has come leaps & bounds! When he started he refused to even try writing his name, and trying to teach him anything was a battle. Flash forward to now.... He loves to learn! He writes his full name and many other things, knows colors, shapes, alphabet sounds, and recognizes and can write sight words. He thinks they "play" all day, so they make learning fun! He is actually excited to go to Kindergarten to learn how to read! I never thought that would happen. I cannot thank his amazing teachers, as well as Stacey & Sunshine enough. Our experience at Goddard School has been PRICELESS! I highly recommend them for children of all ages! Thank y'all so much from the bottom of our hearts for helping my little man to love learning!!!

I really love this school, its the best. My children loves their teachers and so do I. Sunshine (owner) is great. I had an issue once (mostly my fault for not understanding) but with Sunshine's help we were able to work it out. I would highly recommend this school.

They are absolutely amazing! My kid has grown and learned so much from these caring teachers! Sometimes she even surprises us with things we didn't even know she knew!

Goddard Dacula School is a good learning institutuon. The owner Sunshine is incredible. My kids love this school and I wish I could give them 6 stars.

Great school ! Highly recommended for anyone in gwinnett or surrounding areas!
Ms. Morgan is great, and the kids just adore her. If your looking for an amazing preschool this is the place to go !
