GATE Family Game Night
GATE Family Connections
Welcome!
We value your thoughts, ideas, and participation. It is our goal to build connections that help enhance the GATE program and strengthen what your family gets out of the GATE program.
Following is an inquiry into what will be of most interest to you/your family – so we can make the GATE Community the best possible. Please be open, honest and candid. You and your children are a key piece of what makes this a wonderful school district.
