How We Help Our Students Succeed

 

Many of our students come from other schools having struggled academically and socially. They come to Gateway Lab School and find a school specifically designed to give them the instruction and environment they need to succeed.

 

How do we do it? Here’s a few core principles set Gateway Charter School apart:

 

• Every Child Can Learn - We believe it is the responsibility of the school to identify and value each student's unique learning style.

 

• Arts Integration Into Curriculum - Children who struggle academically in a traditional classroom can flourish in a multi-sensory environment where they learn by doing, not just by listening.

 

• Small Class Sizes - We know that our teachers have the most to offer when they can give unique attention to each student.

 

• Character Education - We set clear expectations and provide daily reinforcement to create a consistent environment to help students focus on growth.

• Research-Based Teaching Methods - Every day, every lesson - we utilize teaching methods that are proven to be successful in the lives of students.

 

• Celebrate Diversity and Respect Individuality - Our goal is to help students grow into the strongest and best versions of themselves.

• Strengthening Self-Advocacy - All students should be able to articulate their strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles, which leads to self-advocacy.
