At Gateway we know that students’ lives outside the classroom are just as important as what happens within one. Whether they’re seeking support with an academic challenge or mental health concern, have dreams of athletic stardom, or are looking for a new place to make friends, there are a number of opportunities available for GHS students to enrich their high school experience.
Student Life at GHS
College and Career Services
Gateway's college counseling program helps to ensure that all students successfully navigate the college preparation and admissions process. In the spring of their junior year, students take College Counseling 11, where they explore careers, majors, a range of different colleges, and prepare for the SAT. During their senior year, students take College Counseling 12, where they are guided through the admission process, essay writing, financial aid, and scholarship opportunities. In addition, Career Days, internship opportunities, college campus visits and many more opportunities ensure students are receiving consistent, positive messages and support around their college dreams.
Academic and Mental Health Support
Students can access independent study space and support in the Study Café throughout the school day. Students can get help with specific subject areas or with general study skills such as homework management, organization, and test preparation. In addition, our Learning Center team provides support in most classroom spaces and to all students who need it, whether they receive formal special education services or not. Our vision is that of a learning community where all learners have access to the resources they need to thrive without shame or stigma. Learn More.
Resources are also available to support student mental-health and well-being. The Student Support Office is available from 8:30AM-4:00PM each day and offers both formal and informal counseling sessions, group counseling and support opportunities, assistance with basic daily needs, community resources, and more.
