The Boosterthon Fun Run is an interactive, community-based event that promotes three specific values: Fitness, Education, and Character. Thank you to all of our sponsors for making this student activity a success! Students and teachers really enjoyed the fun run!

STRIVE

Gateway Charter School and Charter Schools USA have embarked upon a character education program called STRIVE for Greatness that will challenge our students to do what is right, do their best, and make a positive difference in their school and community.

STRIVE is a program created by the Clarion Council for Educational Greatness and is designed to help schools partner with parents to reinforce important, non-religious moral values. Our school has been chosen to be a part of a three-year pilot to develop this exciting program.

STRIVE Students of the Month

The Student of the Month program is to publicly recognize students for the positive contributions they make to their class and the school. At Gateway Charter School students are selected from each classroom to be honored as the student of the month. Grade level teachers select a student from their class who meets the following criteria:

• Follows the Rules
• Does their class work and homework
• Models good character
