The Geneva Preschool has a long history in the Westmont neighborhood of Johnstown, PA. As a ministry of Westmont Presbyterian Church, our preschool opened over 50 years ago, and for many years was known as Geneva House, a name still
recalled by many in our area. In 2011, the preschool moved into the church building and was renamed
The Geneva Preschool. We have proudly been a
state-licensed academic preschool for over 15 years.
By incorporating music, art, movement, spiritual development, social interaction, and academic learning into our daily lessons, we strive to maintain the high standards of academic, spiritual, and social development for which The Geneva Preschool has come to be known.
