I hope you had a wonderful summer! For the month of September, the Gateway Program will continue with online learning. In-person learning will begin in October. I will be working at the school starting September 7, and I can be contacted at 519-631-0231 ext. 2 between the hours of 9:00 and 2:30. I am looking forward to working with you again soon!

Our last regular day of Gateway is Thursday, June 24. (There is a summer term from June 28 to July 22.) Please contact Allan Bingham at [email protected] if you have any questions over the summer. Everyone currently enrolled in Gateway will remain a student in the fall unless they let me know otherwise. Our first class in September will be on Wednesday, September 8. The style of learning (online/in-person/mixed) is unknown at this time. As soon as I know, I will provide an update. Have a fabulous, relaxing, spectacular summer!

There is no school on Monday, May 24. Have a fabulous long weekend!

Learning at home can be difficult sometimes. Remember to take breaks frequently throughout the day. Below are some other quick tips to help reduce stress.

Yay!!! It's almost time for Gateway to start! Monday is the day. I can't wait to start working with you again!

The Gateway Program start date has been moved to Monday, September 14. Remember, Gateway is online at this time. I will be available starting Tuesday, September 8 to answer any questions you may have. I will also be sending out a learning survey to all current learners. I look forward to connecting with you again!

UPDATE: When Gateway begins in September, it will be online. The goal is to eventually return to face-to-face learning but there is no set timeline for this. I will be reaching out to current learners in the coming weeks. Enjoy the rest of your summer! If you have any urgent questions, please contact Allan Bingham at [email protected].
