The Goddard School of Clarksburg
Our infant care play area is filled with toys and books that help your baby develop at his or her own pace. Teachers sing songs and read stories to... encourage language acquisition. They also pass balls and play games to develop motor skills. In our Goddard School, American Sign Language is introduced to encourage children to express their thoughts or needs. Goddard Teachers also work with the parents to ensure a balance of home and school. Together they develop the child’s daily schedule including nap times, play times and bottle times.
As part of the Infant Program, the First Steps classroom helps the child transition from Infant to Toddler as the budding explorers learn new vocabulary and self-help skills. Through The Goddard School® F.L.EX.® Learning Program, teachers plan daily activities in a bright and cheery environment to encourage eager investigation of the world. Within the consistent structure toddlers crave, they enjoy a daily balance of quiet activities, spirited music and movement and plenty of outdoor climbing, running and jumping.
The Goddard School® F.L.EX.® Learning Program sets the stage for self confidence by encouraging progress at a child’s own pace, according to individual needs and abilities. Learning centers for math, science, dramatic play, music, creative art and computers provide opportunities to balance both shared and independent learning experiences. Fitness, art history and manners are incorporated into the preschooler's daily schedule, as well. Visits by local museums and libraries, community helpers, and theatrical productions supplement classroom learning within the safety of our schools.
Your child will love our state-of-the-art facility, complete with a dance & yoga studio, arts and crafts studio, full-sized child-friendly cooking kitchen, computer center, gymnasium and a multipurpose room for games and socializing. Transportation between our School and five area elementary schools will be provided via Montgomery County public school buses.
