Parent Connections
NASA Goddard Child Development Center | FacebookParents are encouraged to stay connected with our school. Here are a few ways you can stay connected:
Access Your Child’s Portfolio: At GCDC, every student has an online portfolio. We refer to this as GOLD. Parents can access this password-protected data via any internet-ready computer. Our goal is to get to know as much as possible about each child so that our Teachers can plan learning experiences that meet can child’s individual needs.

Procare Engagement App: Procare Engage has been formulated to help child development centers, preschools and before and after school programs build meaningful connections with parents and families while relying on the Procare desktop version as their central management system. Procare Parent Engagement seamlessly transfers your center’s data from the Procare desktop version. All families must set up an account in order to sync the procare desktop account to the mobile app.
