Steve
I have been the original owner of The Goddard School (Polaris) since 1999 and I'm an on-site active presence in the school daily. After earning my Bachelor’s degree from Miami University in 1994, I marketed technology used for education for DataBeam Corporation, Lotus Software, and IBM's eLearning division. I am the principal of this charter school. The Goddard School (Polaris) operates both as a private preschool and a non-public charter elementary school under the Ohio Department of Education. I have an amazing wife, Teresa, and two beautiful step-daughters, Breia and Mariah, and fun & energetic granddaughter, Scarlett. My wife is a top realtor in Central Ohio (LuxeHomeTeam.com), Breia is also a realtor and a buyer's agent on Teresa's team and Mariah is an esthetician and entrepreneur with her new collective, Raw Beauty, in Grandview. Scarlett is a student at our school and our #1 product tester! We all enjoy a very active family life.

My husband and I recently moved here from Philadelphia where I graduated from Temple University with a degree in Psychology. In school I took many Child Development classes which solidified my love for working with children.
