I get reminders for everything going on at the school by emails and calls from the principal which is great for me since I'm very busy and tend to forget. Assistant principal was very welcoming when we registered at the school and remembers our family when we see her. The principal is very involved at South! We have seen him during school night at chick fil a. Couldn't be happier to be part of this school for my kids!

All three of our kids attend BCCA, and we couldn't be happier. Our oldest started in kindergarten…read moreand is now in fifth grade. Our youngest just entered kindergarten after two wonderful years in the preschool program. The curriculum is more advanced than our experience at CMS, and our kids are encouraged to challenge themselves while being fully supported. They actually enjoy going to school, which says a lot. When our son needed help with reading, he received in-school and after-school tutoring at no cost. Teachers are communicative, with weekly check-ins and extra updates. Every teacher we've had has gone above and beyond. The admin team is engaged and present at drop off and pick up daily. BCCA goes beyond academics with events that build confidence, character, and community. We're so grateful to be part of this diverse, supportive school. Highly recommend.

Do not send your children to Goddard Mallard Creek! The staff does not listen to concerns of…read moreparents when it comes to the safety standards of your children. They will go back and forth with you about what they feel is right for YOUR child. When you voice your concerns about negligent staff or teachers who speak to children aggressively, you're met with excuse on top of excuse. Notices are not sent to other classrooms when viruses are running around the school although many students have siblings/ relatives in other classrooms. They will still send your child (infant- preK) outside in poor weather conditions and will tell you that the state requires children to be outside everyday. In below freezing temps? Poor air quality? Light rain? Yes they will still force your child to go outside in those conditions regardless of how much YOU the parent has asked otherwise. Don't be fooled by the "five star" Google reviews. A large portion of those "5 star reviews" from the same time period were based off an email sent to "incentivize" staff members. Each "5 star review" would equal $100 to be divided among staff for a "Holiday Bonus". FYI if you're only creating an incentive boost your online rating, you know your facility is not what you present it to be. If it were, you wouldn't have so many visits from NCDHHS https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/childcaresearch

I'm so grateful for our experience with The Goddard School! When we moved to Charlotte, we…read morestruggled to find the right school for our 2nd grader. Fortunately, we found the GS right away for our littlest guy. We trusted GS teachers to help him learn and keep him safe, but they have truly cared for him. The owners are great and the staff is professional. We're headed to kindergarten now, but will never forget the time we spent with this sweet team! My little one is ready for 'big school' and it's because of the curriculum and programs offered by the GS. Thank you all!

Honestly, it's a good school, (coming from a student) but covid protocols are not great. I just…read morewant somebody to clean the tables we eat on. speaking of eating, I am lactose intolerant and the lunches they give me instead of like pizza, for example, are not great. the chicken wings are good, but the chicken other than that is gross, boney, and dry with uncleaned chicken blood on it. once, I got a plate with 5 dry meatballs. that's it. the teachers are kind, but when they hear extremely inappropriate cursing, they just ignore it because it's more work for them to deal with it. 7/10, good school, be careful to look into it before you go there. (As a gay student, some homophobia and transphobia coming from certain teachers, not severe but very accepting other than that.) P.S, I do live in NC as of posting this, but it says I am from California

It might be on…read morethe teachers and walls.. we're told the graduation of the blue waffle on the books happens in the transition to East Gaston High School. The school has gotten better since the change out of the Principle from Ms. Moore to Ms. Reep. The former principle violated privacy laws by asking some kids to open their Facebook accounts without prior consent of parents. Security at the school is good. Our experience here is few major incidents. The football field is located across the street directly across from the Mt. Holly Library.
