About the GVREA Charter Board
The Charter Board provides direct governance to our school, and it is made up of GVREA members. This unique aspect of public charter schools gives invested parents and community members the opportunity to serve GVRA in an impactful way through team-based leadership.
Charter Board Terms are two years in length and generally involve 1–2 commitments per month. There is also additional opportunity to serve on committees dealing with facilities, finance, human resources and policy to name some.
