The Goddard School of Rockville

"My son is less than 2 months in the school. He has settled very well. The two teachers are patient and knowledgeable which gives me comfort that my son is in good hands. I look forward to having my son well prepared and probably above board for elementary school. Nike"

"This school helped my originally shy kid to grow and gain confidence. He is starting kindergarten with all the tools needed to succeed, including math and literacy knowledge, an endless curiosity in all topics, and an appreciation of what can be gained with hard work. Of course, he also felt safe and loved during his time at Goddard, which was the most important thing."

"We're coming up on an emotional day, because after 5 years at The Goddard School of Rockville, our daughter will be saying goodbye to start Kindergarten.  It's difficult to find a place you trust wholeheartedly to keep your baby safe, nurtured and loved when you can't be there.  We've made lifelong friends with many of her teachers, and practically all of them could be viable candidates for "teacher of the year".  She has learned and developed so well under their curriculum.  The program is creative, fun and educational.  I am constantly amazed to hear about what she's learned and experienced at such a young age.  We're thankful to still have our son enrolled, so it isn't goodbye for good, but it is bittersweet to see our daughter move on from a school she (and we) have loved as parents so much!"

"In response to Jennifer Huang: I am shocked by this review and it saddens me to see this comment about my son because it’s a false accusation of his character. “For historical context” my son was often treated unfavorably by O. In fact, you instructed O. to stay away from my son because you didn’t want them to be friends. My family does not condone violence, however we are taught to voice our concerns. In response to the incident that happened in May 2023, O. bumped into my son and because his constant harassment, my son felt the need to defend himself for the first time. This review is a false representation of the fantastic staff and administrators at The Goddard School Rockville. The incidents you mentioned are not accurately described and shifts the blame onto one party. If you felt so poorly about my son I wish you could have requested a meeting with both families and the administrative team to discuss the issues so that we could’ve moved forward in a more positive light. Going to Google to shine a negative light on my child is reckless and irresponsible behavior of an adult. My son misses O. and often talks about how much fun they had together. I would also like to point out that the classroom has been without incident since O. left. We wish you and your family nothing but the best!"
