Gravenstein Parent Association
Welcome to the GPA
Enriching every student's education through the power of community.
The Gravenstein Parent Association (GPA) is a volunteer-run nonprofit that brings learning to life beyond the classroom.
Through community support, we fund GUSD enrichment programs and teacher support, providing students with opportunities in Art, STEM, Movement, Gardening, Set Design, Dungeons & Dragons, and more. We also support Jumpstart enrichment teachers, classroom funding, and teacher mini grants.
Because these programs aren't fully funded by the district or the state, they're made possible by families, volunteers, sponsors, and donors like you. Our suggested contribution is $46 per child, per month during the school year.
Together, we're creating extraordinary learning experiences for every Gravenstein student.
Our Mission
Together, we're creating exceptional learning opportunities for every student.
Our mission is to enrich every student's education through the power of community—funding inspiring teachers, innovative programs, and meaningful opportunities that help every child learn, grow, and thrive.
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.
