Our Mission
At Gateway Intermediate School, our philosophy is to develop educational programs based on the unique characteristics and needs of young adolescents. Our mission is three-dimensional: * to strive for academic excellence by maintaining high expectations of our students, staff and parents. Every child can and will succeed academically. * to develop a strong personal sense of discipline and social responsibility in our students. * to create within our school, a community of learners and leaders where teachers, staff, students, parents, and community work collaboratively in order to enhance the quality of education. Our two academies (Grades 6-8) are focused on standards-based curriculum in preparation for admission to the top city high schools. Our students qualify for scholarships from Spring Creek Towers, Inc. to attend college.
