Gateway Christian Schools:
Gateway Christian Schools, based in Memphis, Tennessee, is a church-related school offering three different programs: a campus school, an Extension Program for grades 2-12, and a Total Home-Education Program for K-12. Home education allows parents to spend quality, one-on-one time with their children. Gateway Curriculum Center has thousands of titles for home-educating parents to choose from and helpful staff to answer your questions. As a church school, we recognize the exclusive authority and jurisdiction of parents over their own children.
The state of Tennessee requires home-educating families to register with either the local board of education or with a church-related school. Home-educating parents/guardians may register their children with Gateway in order to comply with state law. We consider our office in Memphis to be like the main office at a private school where records are kept.
As such, we keep record of registration and maintain a transcript compiled from the grade reports we receive from the parents. In addition, we assist with transfer between public/private schools and home education programs, handle evaluations for junior and senior high-school students and send about six informative mailings per year.
Are there different types of home-education programs?
Yes. In fact, Gateway has two different home-education programs. Our local Extension Program allows students to come to campus (about once a week) to get materials, test, and be tutored. Gateway's Total Home-Education Program allows parents to choose their own materials and teach at home. Other programs include correspondence programs and registration with the board of education. Gateway does not encourage its students to register both with Gateway and another program like the board of education or a correspondence program.
Gateway is a fully accredited member of the Private Schools Accreditation Alliance, but is not and does not wish to be accredited by the state of Tennessee. Schools that are accredited by the state of Tennessee may be required to use specific books and materials and to test their students in certain grades.
