Gateway Stem Academy Families:
Thank you for your on-going support to your students and GSA. The purpose of this message is to share an upcoming shift in our school’s learning model. Here is the plan for transitioning to In-Person learning:
Gateway Stem Academy will have students full-time for all grade levels. Parents may also choose to continue with distance learning for the second semester.
Gateway Stem Academy is required to follow the guidelines that were provided by the Minnesota Department of Education. Here are the guidelines that will be used when students return to school:
● Face masks are required to be worn at all times by students and staff
● Students seating in the classroom will be separated by 3 feet
● All meals will be served to students in the classroom
● Student computers will be brought to school everyday
