Houston Gateway Academy was a safe place where I could go and be myself. It was a second home to me. The teachers and academics were beyond remarkable. However, HGA does need a lot of changes. From a variety of classes, to more sports, to better lunches, and to even better lunches.

The size of the building is small. It not matter but it does. The school makes me feel crowded. The lack of space makes fewer opportunities. There is no gym. We have to rent another school's gym in other to practice or host a game.

Houston Gateway Academy was an okay school. The had good intentions but were unable to fulfill them. They lack many resources and do not have qualified staff.

You may want to check and see if your child's teacher and principal are certified. The only resource the teacher has to teach from is a textbook. If you want to be employed at this school they will not verify employment or give refernce/recommendation for future employers.

The first nine weeks of school, the science teacher was out on maternity leave and the school did not hire a substitute teacher. Science was not taught to the six graders for the first eight weeks! Gateway Academy, Coral campus does not have enough books for the students. My son hardly ever had home...
