We are looking for a Honda generator to help us with our lighting needs.  We also need parents to help with tasks for the day before and day of the event.  If you would  like to volunteer or have a generator we can borrow please contact parent Virginia Ganley virginiag@cruzio.com.

EAP Meeting Tuesday 9/28:  Join Gateway School's Environmental Advisory Panel (EAP) and help us Green Gateway! Our next meeting will be held in the library on Tuesday September 28th, 3:30-4:30. Meetings are the 4th Tuesdays of the month.

Last year's meetings focused on ways of reducing toxins on campus and on how to expand communication for environmental issues and environmental education on the Gateway website.  Some additional ideas for the 2010-2011 school year could be to create a food policy and facilitate student eco clubs.
