Extra-Curricular Participation Fees
Gateway Science Academy (GSA) recognizes the important role extra-curricular activities play in the development of student values. All students are encouraged to participate in the school's extra-curricular program. There is a large expense associated with providing a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities for GSA Middle and High School students.

GSA administers Extra-Curricular Activity Participation Fees to students involved in any athletic activity. These fees offset a small portion of the costs associated with transportation, tournament entry fees, and coaching/sponsor stipends.

*** Registering on FinalForms does not guarantee the spot on the teams. There will be tryouts for each team.

*** Once the students make the team there will be a $75 for high school and $40 for middle school athletics fee due by their second game. The athletic fees are none-refundable. If a student chooses to play all seasons the max will be $150 per year for high school and $80 for middle school student athlete.

*** There will be $250 cap per family.

*** Students are responsible all of their classes and must have passing grades from all. Use PowerSchool to check grades periodically.

Athletic Policies and Procedures

Athletics Parent Handbook

The purpose of this handbook is to provide a guide for Gateway Science Academy Middle and High School parents and students regarding policies, procedures and responsibilities related to interscholastic sports. A major goal of the interscholastic athletic program is to involve as many student athletes as possible in an educationally sound and successful manner.

Salih Cavdar currently serves as the Athletic Director for GSA Middle and High School. A major responsibility of the Athletic Director is to assist all coaches in the implementation of athletic programs and to provide students with the finest athletic program possible. Should you have any questions regarding general athletic program policies or procedures please contact Mr. Cavdar at 314-261-4361 ext. 127, or [email protected]

The entire athletic program must work within the framework of the overall school program. No program can be successful without the cooperation and support of the community we serve. We hope that you find this information useful as you and your child begin your experience at GSA. Best of luck in all your athletic endeavors.

Appropriate Behavior

Appropriate behavior is expected during all extra-curricular activities. All rules that govern and apply to student behavior during the school day also apply to extra-curricular activities. Student behavior on the bus, in the locker room, on the court/field, on the stage, etc., should promote a positive image of Gateway Science Middle and High School. Inappropriate behavior will not be accepted or tolerated. All extra-curricular activities are extensions of the school day, so inappropriate behavior during the school day will affect participation in the before and after-school programs. Coaches are encouraged to maintain communication with administrators and parents regarding any discipline situation. The school administration will be directly involved in significant disciplinary matters and will make decisions regarding appropriate consequences.
