Casino Night Photos

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported Learning Gate at our annual Casino Night. We had a groovy time with great music, great fun, and great food! Let's do it again next year!

Playground Build Home Stretch!


We need MANY volunteers to help us with two weekends of work to complete the largest part of the playground installation. If we get enough volunteers on the two weekends, then we won't have to close the playground during the school year. So PLEASE help us by coming out and volunteering. Students are welcome to help as well.

Please sign up to volunteer here the weekend of March 7th and/or March 14th.

PE Donor's Choose


From Ms. Belinda and Ms. Kim

Our Donors Choose project is 'I Can Run For Miles and Miles". Pedometers have been used for centuries to measure distances traveled. Our students will be setting personal fitness goals and using the pedometers to measure distances traveled. Our students strive to improve their physical fitness with every physical education class. The pedometers will allow us to improve our fitness while tracking our progress in a fun innovative way. Students who have fun while being physically active are more inclined to be physically active adults.

Click the highlighted name above to view our donation page. Feel free to forward the page to family or friends who would like to support our physical fitness goals for Learning Gate students.



Garden News and Help Request!


From Ms. Cissy

If there is someone who is inspired by the idea of building a prototype of a useful garden gadget please contact Ms. Cissy at the garden or at cissy@learninggate.org.
