We're so fortunate to have such a place in our city. What an amazing find. The teachers are very engaging, and keep the students excited about learning. And they really seem to care about the students. They teach from the very young, novice students (my son is 7), to advanced programming (high school AP computer science), with students designing games and apps and showcasing their work at special events organized by the school. They offer group classes, individualized coaching (1 instructor for 2 students), as well as track out, summer camps and kids nights out. In addition to the fun, my son is actually learning a valuable skill that will serve him well in life. I wish something like this existed when I was a kids...but then, there WAS no Internet when I was a kid!

I always thought that the best way to measure a business is how they act when things are not going well and I feel good about how they reacted. I've currently made a commitment to try ice hockey and a soccer league for my son. Once those are done this spring, I plan to reach back out to them to see how my son would do with them. Thanks Balkan e Martial Arts!

The facility is large and fully equipped in various equipment and tools to help the kids with form. Free wifi and plenty of seats make it comfortable while we are waiting.

We were nervous leaving our daycare of 4 years, but having dedicated teachers instead of staff with a high turnover has made a huge difference.

The school also hosts great community events, and everyone has been so warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Goodard School at Apex caused a huge stress in our lives. One day, child protection service officer…read morecalled me that there is a complaint against me. As you can imagine, this was quite unsettling. I went through the interview patiently. I was told that the complaint was done by the Goddard School. The complaint was that I take walks with my younger child, without taking my elder child with me, and this was suspicious. I had been doing this for more than a year. So what had happened? What had happened a few days before that was that I had a disagreement with the director. The CPS officer, after satisfying herself by asking me all kind of questions, told me that they have received complaints like this in the past. Based on their feedbacks, they have realized that Goddard is very nice to the parents at the time of enrollment. A year or two after that, on any disagreement, they use one parent against the other. Or if they don't like something about you, they complain to the social service, on some pretext. By this time , the parents cannnot make the children go through a disruptive change, by changing the school. The school is obviously expert in human behavior, and has calculated this in its "art" of keeping the parents in check. The parents then start "working with" the school. She finally told me that the CPS service check is routine, and she will get back. The service was called off in about a month and a half. It was not actually called off. Only when I checked back with them, I received a mail stating "no services required". Needless to say, that month and a half, I was fighting with my own worst fears. I just prayed this to go away. I do not wish that this school happens to you.

The owners (husband & wife team) are on-site. He is friendly, outgoing and makes it a point to know all of the kids and parents by name- the wife, not so much. The old Director & Assistant Director were both very nice - not sure if they've left or have both been on vacation, but the new person that has been there has been really rude, to the point that I have dreaded having to call or go in to the school. The tuition was ridiculously expensive ($986 for part time, M-F 8:30 AM - 12:30 PM), but there didn't seem to be anything more or better than what a "regular" preschool would be doing. They also don't provide lunch, which seems a little unreasonable at that price point. Bottom line - it's just okay. It's overpriced for what it actually is. I'm pretty confident that we can find something just as good, if not better (nicer staff, more welcoming environment) at a more appealing price.
