This school is so great. I love it. Almost everything is hands on learning. I am actually a student here.A 7th grader as a matter of fact, and going to this school has brought me to love school even more.

We have been involved with GVCS for 7 years. We are thrilled that our children's academic success is not dictated by tedious, scripted curriculum. Their learning revolves around thought-provoking 'expeditions' or in-depth studies. Art and music, plus the core curriculum, are focused on the expedition. Parents are invited and encouraged to be an active part of their child's education through classroom help, fieldwork and other volunteer opportunities. Each child's needs are taken into account. This school has a wonderful staff who are committed to our children. I love that the classrooms buddy-up with other classrooms. The older kids get to read and mentor the younger students. A well-rounded sports program is available for the upper grades. It is truly a learning community. Come take a look for yourself.

This year will be my daughter's 4th year at Grass Valley Charter School. We moved away for a year, and she was so sad to have left Grass Valley Charter School that she kept asking, 'When are we going to move back to Grass Valley so I can go to my school?' My son just started, and he loves it as well. This school has so many opportunities to experince learning in such an interesting way. Kids are more likely to remember what they learn because of how they are taught-by experiencing things rather than spending most of thier time reading about them. I am very happy with the parent involvement and the encouragement and care that is given to each student.
