Our Vision
At Gatewood we believe that changing the world is possible
We want kids to love
life
learning
challenge
and each other
We want kids to become
advocates for social justice
caretakers of the planet
compassionate citizens
who understand and honor our global community
We want kids to remain curious
to become responsible
philosophers
thinkers
leaders
filled with empathy and courage
We want kids to
wear out library cards
write the next great novel
solve unsolvable equations
investigate mysterious phenomena
We want school to be a joyful place
filled with learning and laughter
where our halls ring with
song
dance
and art
We want school to be a place
with room to fall down
get back up
and take the next step
We want school to be a place
where everyone feels included
all cultures are celebrated
and our differences make us stronger
We want school to be a place where kids and adults feel
safe
loved
supported
successful
We want to be gentle with ourselves as we learn, change, and grow
We want to find joy and balance as we tinker with imperfection
At Gatewood we believe that changing the world is possible
