Dear Gateway Families,
On behalf of the staff at Gateway / OWL School, I am happy to welcome you to the 2022-23 school year! It’s so wonderful to return with new families joining us. We are looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our students can achieve their highest potential. We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our students need support from both the home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a great difference in your students’ education. As partners, we share the responsibility for our student’s success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities.
This year, our focus will continue to build our students capacity to learn and grow individually as well as a Pack! Please take time to ask your students about their daily school experience. Its important they know we all care and that they belong to our pack!
Additionally, if you hear evening sounds of students laughing and sharing around the campfire, it’s probably our D51 Outdoor Wilderness Lab transforming the lives of 6th graders from across the district visiting OWL. It’s quite the adventure for students to make memories for a lifetime!
The wonderful Gateway / OWL staff and I feel privileged to be a part of this school family. We thank you for your support and look forward to serving you this year. Stay tuned!
Sincerely,
Mark Allen
Gateway /OWL Principal
