GUARDIAN WEAR
​We had our Guardian Wear pick up on Friday, November 18th. Thank you for your patience while we navigated through shipping delays.  For the families that still need to pick up their Guardian wear, please contact Nicole Fornicola at gatewayguardianwear@gmail.com to make arrangements for pickup.
​STAFF APPRECIATION
​​
Our "Thankful Pies" buffet was a huge hit with the staff and Gateway Middle school. We also provided a pie to all the bus drivers of Gateway Middle school. A huge thank you to all those who donated and helped in showing appreciation to the wonderful staff of Gateway. We were all overwhelmed by the generosity and heart of our community. ​

FUNDRAISING
Starting December 3, 2021 Gateway PTSA is partnering with Smith Brothers Farms on an easy and delicious fundraiser. It's a simple way to earn funding for our PTSA, and a great way for you to get milk and other groceries delivered to your home. If you're interested, just set up a new account for a home delivery at smithbrothersfarms.com and use Gateway PTSA at check out. You'll get $15 off your first delivery order and we'll get $50 for each family that signs up! You'll also get the iconic porch box with your 1st delivery, which is pretty fun.
