	Welcome to Grand Traverse Academy

Grand Traverse Academy is a tuition-free public charter school serving students from preschool through grade 12. We opened in 2000 with a program based on Dr. William Glasser's Choice Theory and were declared a Glasser Quality School in 2005. Grand Traverse Academy is authorized by Lake Superior State University and is a member of the Michigan Association of Public School Academies (MAPSA).
