Feeder schools. The district’s 2026-27 feeder patterns list Cross Prairie K-8, Denn John Middle and Neptune Middle as feeding Gateway High, from the middle school list (PDF), and the zones of Cross Prairie K-8, Cypress, Lakeview, Mill Creek, Neptune and Partin Settlement, from the elementary school list (PDF).
