What Does It Mean to Teach at Gateway?

  • "Working at Gateway Academy means growing as an educator in every aspect—planning, preparation, classroom environment, and professional responsibilities. Here, we adjust our teaching to meet each student where they are, ensuring they grow at their own pace. I lead with compassion, set high expectations, and watch students succeed. The respect from administration is unparalleled, and the professional development provides the resources we need to reach our goals. At Gateway Academy, we don’t just teach—we empower students to grow academically, socially, and mentally, together as a team."

  • "This month marks my 20th year working here at Gateway Academy. I began when it was in its original location and called The Learning Lab. There, while teaching Biology, I started the very first Art Program which continues today. At Gateway, students have one to one, individualized teaching but also have the camaraderie of clubs, and parties for special occasions. It is this unique learning environment which is so important for our students because we tailor our instruction to each one while helping them develop the good habits which will ensure their successful futures. With my MFA in Art, my BS degree in Biology and Chemistry, and my love for Geometry, I intend to continue teaching at Gateway Academy as long as I can because here I have found my purpose!"
