NEW LEAF SCRIP CARDS
Do you shop at New Leaf? Did you know that by doing so YOU can support Gateway School? We have New Leaf cards available for purchase in the Main Office and with every dollar spent 5% goes directly back to Gateway!! The cards work JUST like a gift card. You can use the card at one purchase, or over multiple purchases (just like a debit card).
With holiday and back to school shopping - you KNOW you will spend it - so why not have part of your shopping support Gateway?! Stop by the Main Office to purchase your New Leaf card NOW! Thank you!!
STARBUCKS GIFT CARDS
We also have $25 Starbucks gift cards left over in our SCRIP supplies. These make great for gifts for teachers, babysitters, friends in other towns, etc. Please support our GPA by purchasing these gift cards in the Main Office!

Gateway Maker Laboratory Donations Needed
We are going to introduce a Maker Lab to our Technology program (beginning this fall with 5th graders, and potentially becoming an after school class).
Please donate unused or broken wind-up clocks, rotary phones and other small mechanical devices for students to take apart to build new inventions and kinetic sculptures.
We can also use the following: PVC pipe, copper tubing, discarded electronics, reel to reel tape recorders and cassette players, broken laptop computers, battery-operated toys and boom boxes.
Donations can be brought to the Main Office. Thank you! Cindy, Technology Teacher
