School Life Overview

The Gateway School experience is about more than academics. Our community of parents and educators creates a network around the students that supports their social, emotional, and academic growth. It is the strength of the community that supports personal and academic success. The education of Gateway children unfolds in an environment where the children feel known and valued. They are challenged and engaged by a strong academic program and vibrant school life. They find warmth and security in the partnerships between home and school, student and teacher.

Rich Traditions and Celebrations

Life at Gateway is rich and full of vitality. Memorable events, school traditions, and seasonal all-community gatherings give a sense of belonging for the younger children and bring new perspectives for the older children as they grow and mature. These traditions reinforce important values of respect, responsibility, environmental stewardship, and service to community.

Strong Community

Gateway parents enthusiastically work with the faculty and staff to create a wonderfully active and strong school community. Both parents and children at Gateway make connections that last for years. Our shared vision of supporting our children with quality education, fun and plenty of love is a powerful unifying force that brings us together to learn and celebrate in many different ways through out the school year.

 

“We came to Gateway to get a really rich education for our daughters. In addition to that, we found a wonderful community of friends, both for our children and for ourselves. In so many ways, we’ve found a “village” to help raise our girls. It’s really quite spectacular.”

--Jennifer F., Gateway parent
