Driving safety

If there is a local fog delay then Gateway will start with second hour at 9:50. Fog is usually lifted by then. Our policy is safety first. If the local schools are closed due to snow then we will not have classes.

See you there.

Book clarification

The Prentice Hall books can be purchased through Amazon or other web sites. Most of the time the workbooks are priced better through Prentice Hall. Also, shipping is less since we order as a group. If you need a workbook ordered, I need the money by orientation.

Class changes

There were not enough students before the deadline signed up for Earth Science the first semester. This class has been cancelled. Please consider Anatomy or a virtual school option. Earth science will be offered second semester.
