"The Visiting Team was impressed by the dedication of Gatewood School's hardworking faculty, wellrounded students, and passionate parent body. Clearly, those engaged with this school cherish it, hold it's mission and values dear, and are willing to spend enormous amounts of time and energy to help insure it's success............The same challenges that face all independent schools face Gatewood as well: managing enrollment, recruiting and retaining faculty, diversifying the student body, integrating educational technology, and modernizing its curriculum, among others. That Gatewood manages to do this -- and do it well -- with limited resources in a local community where private school education is not a foregone conclusion is a significant achievement.  Building the new high school building and determining how it will proceed with either building a new GLO facility or fully merging the two schools into one will be very important next steps in the school's immediate future.
