Dominick and Barron DeSanctis stem center


Gateway Academy launched its new STEM Center in the spring of 2023. A 1,700 SF facility dedicated to science, technology, engineering and math. "Imagine our Academy students creating plans for a water system to provide — for the first time ever — clean water to poor communities in different parts of the world. "It is a perfect example of how the Academy emphasizes hands-on experiences, to both prepare students for future STEM careers and help others in need."  Christopher DeSanctis, Head of School
