Admissions Process

Admission Priorities

Students are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. However, priority is given to:

Siblings of currently enrolled students (including children whose primary guardians share custody of at least 50% of the time).
Children of school employees (including those who work at least half-time and have custody of the child, with employment starting on or before the first day of school in the year of application).

Global Village Academy-Douglas County (GVA-DC) is a tuition-free, public charter school open to all students. We are committed to providing a diverse, global education that prepares students for a rapidly changing world.

Admissions at GVA Douglas County begins with the completion of the Family Interest Form.

If a seat is available in your preferred language village, in mid-November, you will receive an email invitation to accept or decline your seat. After acceptance, families will receive an online registration link to complete the admission process.
