About Us
Grand Valley State University has a long standing tradition and commitment to providing quality education for students. As part of this mission, the GVSU Board of Trustees seeks to impact public K-12 education through its leadership in Michigan's Charter Schools.
GVSU chartered its first three schools in 1995, serving a total of 350 students. As we enter our 16th year as an authorizer, GVSU charters 43 school buildings serving just over 20,000 students. Grand Valley State University's dedication to fostering choice in K-12 education and positive public reform is stronger than ever. If you would like to learn more about charter schools and GVSU’s role in this movement, please contact the Charter Schools Office at (616) 331-2240.
