Students expressing interest in the Gateway Cyber Academy are expected to have basic computer skills and be willing to follow all Academy guidelines. Students must be able to manage their time and work productively in a less restrictive learning environment. Gateway Cyber Academy, as part of its registration process, will review current transcripts and complete a diploma audit. A student may be declined enrollment if Gateway School District Staff determine enrollment in the Gateway Cyber Academy will not afford the student an opportunity to gain required credits and/or to meet graduation requirements in a timely fashion. Enrollment may be declined also if Gateway School District Staff determine Academy course options do not allow a student to continue his/her studies in a particular content area or course options do not match a student’s career focus and/or special interests. Enrollment may be declined for students who have pending disciplinary matters and/or for students who entered into legally binding agreements with the district in lieu of formal expulsion.
