At Gatewood, we believe that changing the world is possible, and the PTA works closely with our principals and staff throughout the year to support this idea. Our vision is revealed through providing ways that encourage family and community engagement, fun and investigative learning, and pride in one another and our school. Each year brings new challenges and opportunities. Your PTA is here to support our children, families, and school staff.

Events to look forward to this year include the Book Fair and Literacy Night, Math Night and the 100th Day Celebration, Science Fair, and others. Opportunities to enjoy learning within our community include field trips, after-school clubs, Passport Club, Gatewood Family Nights, Gator Green Fest, and the very popular end-of-the-year talent show. Each of these wonderful events is led by devoted school staff and PTA volunteers - like you!

With so many cool events, we need your help to be successful! It is said that "many hands make light work." The success of our events continues to depend upon our volunteers and fundraising. Please Give 5: 5 hours a year, 5 hours a month, 5 hours a week. Spend those hours working in the classroom, chaperoning a field trip, hanging artwork in the halls, or setting up for an event. Fundraising efforts enrich the Gatewood experience through the improvement of exterior grounds and recess equipment, providing field trips, buying new books for classrooms and the library, supporting 5th Grade Capm, school-wide assemblies, and increasing accessibility to technology. Consider where you can share your time and talent. We sincerely value your help and perspective!
 
Please become a PTA member to help us all achieve our vision and advocate for quality public education. Regular meetings will be held the second Monday of the month, usually in the Library. 
 
On behalf of your Gatewood PTA Board, Welcome!
