GCA Preschool

Global Connection Preschool offers Geauga County a unique, combined age preschool classroom environment that sparks curiosity, imagination and confidence while preparing students to become lifelong learners.

Our preschool program is offered to students ages 3-5 and is offered Monday through Friday on a full time and part time basis.

Preschool students enjoy immersive, hands-on programs like cooking and kitchen safety, which teaches fine motor skills through meaningful, fun exercises like chopping, spreading, pouring and scooping.

Our preschoolers also often take part in activities alongside our K-12 students— things like school-wide world holiday celebrations and our “Reading Buddy” program, which assigns our older elementary students to a preschooler with whom they read a book and make a craft each week.
