Grass Valley Charter School opened in 1993 with classes available for students in grades Kindergarten through 8th. This school has a unique approach to giving students the ability to be challenged about their work over time. This process is challenging and does require multiple revisions, but in the end the highest quality is achieved.

This school offers 3 levels of learning: core academic, discovery studies which is for home schooled students and a preschool program. There is also Expeditionary Learning where teamwork and service are a main focus with self discovery as well.
