In 2003, the GSSV officially changed its name to German International School of Silicon Valley (GISSV).

This campus started with a Kindergarten class in fall 2011 in one of the typical historic Craftsman buildings.

GISSV added a third building to the campus in the school year 2016/17 but outgrew the location eventually.

A new location was founded in the Castro - starting school operations in August 2020 with a Preschool-8 program.

GISSV opened a Berkeley campus in August 2007, after a parent-led task force identified a number of families interested in German-English bilingual education in the East Bay.
