Mission :

Photo of College Preparatory School in Virginia Beach, VAIt is the mission of Gateway Christian School, in partnership with Christian parents to help children come to  provide children with an education for life under the guidance of our Lord. We believe we can best do this by training them spiritually, academically, socially, and physically to grow in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Philosophy:
Spiritual maturity and academic excellence are the main objectives of Gateway Christian school. It is the philosophy of GCS that each student who enters our classrooms will be a better student (academically and behaviorally) as they grow in their relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

Academically, GCS incorporates a very traditional philosophy. The teacher is the authority in the classroom, students are at school to learn, and parents play a vital role in the overall academic process. Gateway students perform well within these educational structures, knowing that the teacher has their best interest at heart.
