Annual Open House at Gateway School

Join us for a day of fun and exploration during this once-a-year event for prospective K - 8th grade families! On January 28th, 2017 from 10 am - 1 pm, families are invited to visit Gateway School’s campus to see how our program inspires children to lead lives of purpose and compassion. Walk through our classrooms, meet our talented faculty, hear from specialist teachers and our Head of School, and get to know our student docents and parent ambassadors who will share their Gateway experience. Please RSVP by clicking here.

Gateway School is an independent K-8 academically challenging Progressive school. Our education is rooted in play, creativity, and critical thinking. During their time at Gateway students develop self-confidence, communication and collaborative skills. We value a love of learning and encourage our students to become compassionate and responsible citizens. Gateway has long been a leader in innovative learning techniques – it was the first school in Santa Cruz to establish a Life Lab, the first to build a Maker’s Space, and the first to institute a mindfulness program.

Small class sizes ensure individual attention from teachers who know and care about each child's needs. Art, Music, Spanish, Mindfulness, Life Lab Science and our Maker's Space are integral parts of our robust curriculum. In this supportive environment, Gateway students graduate with the habits to be successful in the most competitive high schools and colleges. We invite you to explore our website for more information and for instructions on how to apply. www.gatewaysc.org
