Welcome!

Welcome to the Griswold Early Education Program, located within Griswold Elementary School. We serve families who reside in Griswold and Jewett City with children ages 3-5.

Griswold Pride

The Griswold Early Education Program shares a building with Griswold Elementary School (grades K-5), and shares a campus with Griswold Middle and High Schools (grades 5-8 and 9-12). This promotes collaboration between buildings, including "the big kids" visiting to read aloud to our students.
