Parent Involvement: Our service work, academic success and adventures outside the classroom are all dependent on parent involvement. Our parents help us in the classroom, provide community expertise, act as chaperones during fieldwork, and help us in a myriad of ways. Parents of GVCS students are asked to join our learning community, and they love it!
Expedition Donations may be paid online either with one payment or monthly installments. Find out more information here.
Parent Leadership Group: In order to foster and coordinate parent involvement, a Parent Leadership Group will meet regularly. This group will support teachers and GVCS by compiling parent survey results, forming subcommittees of parent volunteers, and by being the “place to go” for any parent wanting to volunteer at GVCS. Their activities will be directed by the school administrator and overseen by the Charter Council.
GVSD Parent Teacher Club (PTC) is a group of parents, teachers and principals from Hennessy, Scotten, Lyman Gilmore and GV Charter School, who serve the students of the Grass Valley School District. More information

Charter Document: Since opening our doors in 1993 our enrollment has steadily increased to over 300 students even as many other local schools have seen student population declines. We attribute this to our exceptional staff, committed parents and the educational philosophy behind Expeditionary Learning. Review the complete GVCS Charter Document
