On behalf of the Gateway staff, we want to wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Please see the guidelines below that we follow when making decisions regarding indoor or outdoor recess.

On Veteran’s Day (Nov. 11th), we want to take a moment to honor and thank our very own veterans, Mr. Kuck (4th grade teacher) and Mrs. McCausland (Gateway School Counselor), for their service to our country. We are grateful for the sacrifices they have made and for the dedication they continue to show each day here at Gateway. Thank you, Mr. Kuck and Mrs. McCausland! We celebrate and honor you!

We also want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the parents, grandparents, and family members in our Gateway community who have served our country. Your dedication and sacrifices are deeply appreciated, and we are thankful for the example you set for our students every day.
