Our 11 year old son goes to Lewis Global Karate...I cannot speak highly enough of everyone there…read more Matt is especially awesome! The prices here are very fair and we love the flexibility and choices in the schedule. As a side note, our son knows that if he doesn't finish homework, there is no karate, so it's a wonderful incentive for him as well!

I want to start off by recognizing that Goddard Chamblee has some amazing people on staff. I want…read moreto thank those people for doing their best to give my child a good experience. After ~2 years, I would say that I have been satisfied with my experience about 50% of the time enrolled and I am exploring new options for my children. Reasoning follows: 1. Staffing: constant turnover and short staffing lead inadequate teacher:child ratios. You will end up dropping off/picking up your child from different rooms and different faces frequently. Administration will not communicate staffing changes and deceptively leave up pictures of former staff on classroom boards. 2. Cleanliness: the 1-2 year old classroom has glue coming through the floorboards. It has been 6 months since first reported with no remedy. Do you want your kids crawling on this floor? (See picture). If you open the refrigerators or look in drawers or cabinets, you will be disgusted. Too many of the toys and books in the rooms are in very poor condition. 3. Learning Environment: It is difficult to provide a consistently rich learning environment when constantly short staffed and rotating through new faces. 4. Owner: She is rarely present except for when she is asking you for more money for one of her charitable tax write off initiatives.

In February of this year, my son was enrolled in a different school. During his first week, he got…read moresick, and truly never got better. After two months attending, we found out his hearing was temporarily affected from the fluid in his ears and he was scheduled for tubes surgery. Unfortunately because of the sickness, he only spent two full weeks in school out of the two months period. Before the tubes were even put into place, my son was kicked out of the school with teachers claiming he was possibly autistic and more than they could handle. I came to Goddard Chamblee with paperwork in hand that the previous school handed me with my tail tucked between my legs also terrified that they would agree and turn my son away. After a quick discussion and a glance at the paperwork, they agreed that no child should ever be left behind and that the previous school didn't even give my son a chance. My son has now been enrolled at Goddard Chamblee for two months and has hit more milestones and thriving more than he ever has anywhere else. The teachers are so loving, nurturing, and patient. They work with my son to ensure he's truly a part of the class and I can tell they genuinely care about him. Words cannot express how thankful I am for Goddard Chamblee. And special shoutout to Ms. Wendy who truly makes his classroom seem like home.

YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS! I'm a lawyer who has 0 artistic skills, but I'm all for trying new things so…read moreI decided to try this paint & sip class. Stacy, the owner, taught the class, and made me an artist! She is very knowledgeable and fun, which made things so much easier. I actually felt RELAXED while doing a new activity and the final product is something I'm proud of! I took my mom with me and she enjoyed the night so much! I will be coming back. Who knows, maybe Stacy will turn us into artists!

Stacy is wonderful. My coworkers and I usually go every other month for an outing to get us together and relax. We normally go to the location at Eclipse de Luna in Dunwoody, you can order drinks and tapas. This location is wonderful too and you can bring a bottle of wine and some cheese and crackers, whatever you feel like. I also have gone several times for my birthday. They are very flexible too and can make accommodations for your group. Just let them know ahead of time.

I did my research and visited different schools and just like any new mom nothing seemed to make me feel comfortable, until I walked into the Goodard location off Hammond dr. I know my child is loved, I can tell by just walking in the door and the fact she doesn't want to leave most days! As I have gotten to know the parents over the years. Yes we talk! and all the teachers are amazing! As a current teacher myself I think it's only right to mention the curriculum and my child is excelling in pre-K. But of course the love is what keeps my child at Goodard.

The staff all way from the teachers to the front desk are friendly and know each of the students. I enjoy the convenience of my kids being able to participate in soccer and ballet during the school day which allows us more time to do other things on the weekend. Highly recommended Goddard School for your little ones.
