Teachers & Faculty
God has blessed Gateway Baptist Academy with a Christ-like and competent staff. Our teachers love the Lord and they love their students. This makes a difference in the educational process. They not only mentor the students of Gateway Baptist Academy but they also model before them the right kind of Christian life. Our teachers are faithful and active members of Desert Gateway Baptist Church; each is personally involved in the weekly ministries of the church.
