This afternoon, a group of Gateway sophomores hosted a holiday party for the fifth grade students at Sarah Greenwood K-8 School in Dorchester. The Greenwood and Gateway students enjoyed decorating sugar cookies, sparkly snowflakes, and snazzy New Year's party hats for the holiday season. Thank you to Ms. Washington for allowing us to celebrate the holidays with your Grade 5 students and teachers!
(You might be wondering, "Where are the Greenwood students?" We do not post any student's photo online without written permission from a parent or guardian. This explains why the fourth photo above is of our Gateway group's "cookie afterparty"!)
12/21 Holiday Party at Sarah Greenwood K-8
Trip to Tufts University 12/8
On Wednesday, 33 Gateway sophomores and juniors were hosted by the admissions office of Tufts University in Medford, MA. Upon our arrival, our group engaged in a college admissions discussion with Mr. Walker Coppedge, the Tufts admissions officer in charge of the Boston region. Two Tufts undergraduate students then led us on a brisk tour of some of the main campus buildings, before leading us to our free dinner in one of Tufts' undergraduate dining halls.
Despite the seasonably low temperatures, we enjoyed a very warm welcome by Tufts University. Thanks to Ms. Style and Mr. Coppedge for arranging this special opportunity for our students!
