The Global Corner sparks the natural curiosity of children by bringing the world to life, right in their classrooms. Through exciting, hands-on activities, elementary school students in Northwest Florida learn the language, culture, geography, history, food and art of people across the globe.
Each year The Global Corner features a new country to represent. More than 22,000 virtual trips have been taken by local students to Japan, Spain,Egypt, and Brazil so far. This year's voyage…Russia!
The Global Corner is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. For public schools, a minimal fee of $2.00 per student is charged to offset the cost of materials. The remainder of the cost is provided through grants, donations, and sponsorships. (The fee for private schools and other groups varies depending on the size of the group, location, etc. Please call for information.)
