Team Information
Gatewood Teams
Gatewood is a multi-age school, teaching in three grade bands: Kindergarten/1st grade, 2nd/3rd grade and 4th/5th grade. Teaming and multi-age teaching allows us to teach to each student at his or her developmental level. It also allows students to stay with the same team of 2 or 3 teachers for two years. Gatewood also prioritizes resources to maintain small class size.
The teachers and teams are as follows:
Kindergarten/1st Grade
Nancy Carney & Charlene Higuchi
Donna Schwendeman, Mason Skeffington & Cat Picardal
2nd/3rd Grade
Kathy Ludwick, Jeannie Revello & Kate Trumble
