As Goddard School owners, Dave & Kara are dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and academically rich environment. The couple landed in the education business due to Kara's background. She holds a BS and MS in Early Childhood Education and has over 25 years of experience in education administration. Her passion for early learning is rooted in both her professional background and her personal experience as a Goddard parent. Dave is an Engineer by degree, but has embraced his role as "Mr. Dave." Also known as “Coach Dave” by many in the community, Dave spent 20 years in sales with The Lincoln Electric Company. He brings leadership, energy, and a heart for children and families to the school. As Goddard alumni parents themselves, they understand how impactful the early years are in shaping a child’s future. If you’re looking for a preschool with experienced leadership, professional teachers, and a nurturing, engaging curriculum, they’d love to welcome you to the Goddard family!
