Goddard School to open second preschool location in Fairfield to meet high demand
The Goddard School preschool is opening a second location in Fairfield, Connecticut, to meet high demand for childcare, with plans to open by December and a maximum capacity of 188 students. The new location will be situated in a converted office building on Katona Drive, about a mile and a half from the existing site.
A former office building on Katona Drive in Fairfield is being converted into a new Goddard School preschool location. 60 Katona Drive LLC, led by Joshua Cohen and Brett Sherman, purchased the 18,343-square-foot building for $2.5 million in March. The new preschool will have 15 classrooms, two indoor gymnasiums, and three outdoor playgrounds, with a maximum capacity of 188 students and 35-40 staff members. The Shermans, who operate the existing Goddard School at 1280 Stratfield Road, expect the new location to open by December. The new site will function as a companion school to the existing location, helping to satisfy a substantial waitlist. The Shermans have been searching for a new site due to growing demand, with Kim Sherman receiving daily calls from parents seeking childcare.
