About me
For nearly two decades, Gateway Academy has been a leading private, non-profit school located in Houston for students with social and learning differences in grades 6–12. We specialize in serving learners with a wide range of special needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, anxiety, and learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia.
At Gateway, we prefer to use umbrella terms like "social and learning differences" because our students represent a range of strengths and challenges—not just a diagnosis. This intentional approach fosters a community where neurodiverse learners support one another, grow together, and gain the skills to succeed in the real world.
For young adults, Gateway extends its approach to a specialized post-high school program designed to bridge the gap between education and independent living. This program focuses on self-sufficiency, financial literacy, and work readiness, providing personalized coaching and real-world experiences. With these tools, our young adults transition confidently into the next chapter of their lives, ready to lead with purpose and independence.
