We will begin the process of identifying our new Assistant Principal who will begin on July 1.

Some families received a notification on May 2nd regarding a Music Class fee that due. Thank you to those families that paid the class fee. These fees help support the curriculum, and staff purchasing supplies necessary for their curriculum. Any remaining unpaid Music Class fees will be automatically converted into fines at the end of the year.

Class fees can be paid online with a credit card, or you can pay with cash (ideally exact change) or check at the Gateway Middle School Office. Please make checks out to Gateway Middle School.
