Three students represented Gateway School District at the 2007 Pennsylvania Governor's Schools of Excellence this summer. The experience is a five-week summer residential program on college campuses for artistically or academically talented high school students.
Gateway High School students Adrian Fontes and Lisa Sprowls were accepted into the Governor's School for International Studies.
The International Studies program provides students with the opportunity to explore current world economic, political, environmental and social conditions and issues that have particular relevance to both the Commonwealth and the nation. Matthew Lipner was accepted to the Governor's School for Health Care. The program introduces students to the health care field, emphasizing delivery systems, primary care,
prevention, public health, healthy communities and career options.
Admission to the programs is highly competitive - 3,933 applicants vied for 752 positions this year. Students are selected on the meritorious basis of their artistic or academic talent.
"Gateway continues to shine in the regional spotlight because of its students," said Gateway Superintendent Dr. Cleveland Steward. "Our students can compete artistically or academically on any level and with students from across the Commonwealth. My congratulations go out to Adrian, Lisa and Matthew."
