Gateway Public Schools

In 1998, a group of six parents had the dream of creating a school that would be a gateway to college for all students regardless of race, income, or learning style. They founded Gateway High School, a college preparatory, public charter school in San Francisco. Since then, more than 96% of our graduates have gone on to colleges across the country and the world (double the statewide rate). In 2011, we expanded our model with the addition of a middle school. At Gateway Public Schools, we believe that all students can learn at high levels and that all students learn differently. We combine a rigorous academic program with a nurturing environment where the individual talents, strengths, and needs of our learners are identified and supported.
