Teaching is training. Training for life must include training for eternity. A Christian school is an extension of the Christian home in training young people in a Christian environment for time and eternity. The school staff work closely with parents to train the whole child. Attendance at Gateway Christian School is a privilege and not a right. The goal of the school is not to reform, but to train Christian youth in Barberton in the highest principles of Christian leadership, self discipline, individual responsibility, personal integrity and good citizenship. The school stands without apology for the orthodox Gospel of Jesus Christ and the highest standards of morality and Christian behaviour.
