Gateway Christian Academy

This Elementary school is everything you would want in a school. On the smaller side it makes for a great community where everyone has a familiar face. All of the staff is reachable and eager to have parent engagement for the success of everyone, all students, families and teachers. They care about the children, their staff and really make it a great place to be. Issues do arise at any school. The great part about Enterprise is that issues are handled and with great care. From the top starting with the principal, the assistant principal, the staff in the front office, to teachers, to the lunchroom staff, to the special area teachers, to coaches, speech therapist, the safety guardian and even the janitor staff-- everyone is wonderful! There are not enough nice things to say about this school. My children are blessed! They are supported and we all come together to support each other! I love Enterprise Elementary!!!

Like any school, Discovery Elementary has their exceptional teachers and the teachers who don't love what they do. Ms. Dietz has been an amazing principal, and we are grateful for her. She is always at the car loop off in the morning greeting my kids by name, she even attended their father's funeral when he unexpectedly passed. She is very personable and available. I love all of the activities that this school has to offer and I love that the parents can attend the award ceremonies. I know that makes it extra special for my boys.

My daughter has autism, she entered the school in 2nd grade and despite having her doctors diagnosis of ASD, they stuck her in a regular classroom and expected her to act accordingly while they spend several MONTHS doing their own ASD testing. Her placement in a regular classroom led to the suspending my 7 year old repeatedly for "behavior issues". I was getting phone calls almost every single day from her teacher, the counselor, the caseworker, etc regarding her behavior. She was suspended nearly once a week! And shes only on the mild/high functioning side of the spectrum! It took them almost 6 months to place her in an appropriate classroom with a teacher who knew how to teach children with ASD and the difference was night and day! That teacher was excellent and all of a sudden the phone calls home stopped. She never got suspended again either. The whole process to getting her into the appropriate classroom was a nightmare and made my child's first introduction to public school miserable.

If you love your child, DON'T SEND THEM HERE!! What a terrible school! I am at a loss for words!

My children enjoy being at Deltona Christian School! We plan to have all of our children graduate from DCS! We love the Abeka curriculum! I feel that it gives children a good foundation in their formative years, and that it is good preparation for college. As a parent, I'm happy and pleased with my children's teachers! It's important to me that they teach from a Christian worldview, and that the academic standards are held high. My kids have made friends at school and enjoy participating in pretty much all of the events that are offered!
