International studies and Catholic tradition consistently affirm the advantages of gender specific education. Students are challenged in a nurturing environment that best serves the specific learning styles of each gender, providing preparation for college preparatory high schools. Our approach is modeled on over 150 institutions in thirteen countries, directed by the Legionaries of Christ. Gateway was the first school in the St. Louis area to have gender specific education on a coed campus.
