From Avon Grove Charter School

Opened in 2002, AGCS educates children in Kindergarten through 12th grade. We have two campuses in Chester County, Pennsylvania: our Main Campus for grades 4-12 is located in the small town of West Grove and our Early Learning Center for K-3rd grade is nearby in Kemblesville, Pennsylvania. AGCS is independent of the district and is governed by its own Board of Trustees, who are held directly accountable for the goals outlined in its charter.

We are an innovative, college-preparatory, public, tuition-free charter school with a small, neighborhood feel. Ours is a nurturing environment, where every child is well known and cared for by our staff. We focus on your child as a whole - offering an academically rigorous curriculum with differentiated learning opportunities for each student, combined with social-emotional well-being programs for strong character development. AGCS is so much more than an outstanding education for your child - we're family.

academic spotlight

As demand for our school has grown throughout the county and surrounding areas, we have outgrown the current State Road building. Our vision is that a new academic building will allow us to replace our modular units and provide the required classroom space to meet enrollment demand and offer an outstanding educational experience. The future if bright at Avon Grove Charter School!
