High School
Our Grade 9 - 12 students are part of the Gateway/Thurber program (Gurber Program); half the day they are at Gateway and the other half at Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School. Students will have the opportunity to attend Worship at Gateway during their High School worship times. They are also able to take advantage of their REACH blocks on Fridays at both schools, and to access supports for their success through teachers and support staff at both schools.
- Grade 9 & 12 students will spend the first half of every day at Gateway Christian School where they will take their core courses, taught from a Biblical perspective. Students will spend each afternoon at Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School where they will take their option courses as well as additional science classes and their Physical Education classes.
- Gr. 10 & 11 students spend the first half of every day at Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School where they will take their option courses as well as their Physical Education courses and spend the afternoon at Gateway where they will take their core courses, taught from a Biblical perspective.
Gateway’s commitment is to offer a Christ-centered program, within a caring environment, where parents and teachers work together to give every student the opportunity to reach their full potential. Gateway teachers are Christians who teach Biblical truths called ‘Throughlines’ woven throughout the curriculum and school life.
Flex Times
Learning opportunities are presented in many different forms for students. One key is to be flexible! Flex time is scheduled into the timetable of middle and high school students so that they can take advantage of this flexibility. During Flex, students may gain extra understanding on topics that require it, work in small groups on projects or assignments, have focused time with teachers to go over learning objectives that they are struggling with, choose to complete assignments that they are behind on or receive direct, specialized instruction in a particular area.
Middle School students receive a double block of Flex one time per week, and High School students have Flex time scheduled for forty-five minutes per day in their timetables.
