Fall is in the Air....and so is the Gala!
We are loving this fabulous fall weather, and pray that our families enjoyed their Fall Break. It was a perfect time to create wonderful family memories. We loved seeing all our student's smiling faces greeting us this morning. We enjoyed meeting as a staff on Tuesday to learn more about Kingdom Education and how we can make an impact in the lives our students. We are honored that you entrust your children with us, and never take this privilege lightly.
There are so many things going on at King's Gate and we don't want you to miss out. We are in full Gala mode. We are grateful for all the hard work of all who are helping make this event a huge success. If you are new to King's Gate, you might not understand why the Gala is so important to the school. It actually costs more to educate a student than the tuition covers so the proceeds from the Gala help bridge that tuition gap. The Gala funds technology, our science programs, furniture and all the other wonderful things that help make King's Gate such a wonderful environment for our students to learn. We want you to know the importance and ask that you work with us to make this Gala a huge success.

Class Baskets
Participate in Gala Basket Contest by bringing the following items:

- book for all-school book basket
Once the items are brought, the student gets to put a disco ball on our display. The class with the most participation will win a pizza and dance party!
Acquisitions
We ask each family to bring 3 acquisitions. An acquisition can be an item or service that you donate. It could be a service or an item that you request from a business you frequent. People love gift certificates, jewelry, children's items and anything that would make a Christmas gift. Contact Sara Lux at slux@kingsgateschool.com for ideas.
