It wasn’t until I came to Gateway that I thought school could be a place where I was accepted by everybody. The staff and students here all come from really different backgrounds but everyone is supported and encouraged, and that’s really awesome.”

Gateway really allowed me to step up, do right, and dream big, otherwise I wouldn’t be where I am today.

“Gateway taught me to be comfortable with challenging myself. My Gateway teachers pushed me to take honors and AP classes for the first time ever, and when I actually did well in them, it was like something switched on for me. It made me want to try taking on more challenges in school and out of school as well.”
