School Notes Overview:

Gateway Christian School began as Gateway Christian Academy in 1976. We are a ministry of Gateway Baptist Church with the purpose of providing Bible-based education to our children. Realizing that "a threefold cord is not quickly broken", we believe that Christian education begins in the home first and that both the church and school should work hand-in-hand with parents to "train up a child". GCS focuses on academic excellence. All teaching is from a Christian perspective. We believe it is important to train students spiritually, academically, socially, and physically. We believe that the Bible is God's Word and the final authority in matters of faith, principle, and practice. We believe in the literal Genesis' account of Creation and that man was created in the image of God for the purpose of bringing Him glory.
