Dream Center Academy
High School Program“All Children Can Learn– Maybe not in the same day or the same way; but all children can learn.”- Dr. Ed Sadler, Esteemed GCS Superintendent. (1995-2006)
Dear High School Students,
I am a proud product of Gaston County Schools and experienced Dr. Sadler’s charge of my teachers (at the time) first hand. During my schooling here, I was blessed enough to witness the power of belief when it comes to student success and accomplishments.
Now, I consider myself even more blessed as we get to witness YOU grow and develop as empowered students who own their learning with new doors opening at every step. I learn something new from you all everyday–thank you.
As your High School Coordinator, I am here to help you minimize barriers and actualize your goals. I am going to stand in your corner and help you see the power and magic of your beliefs as you hold yourself more accountable, climbing and reaching for higher and higher goals.
I am proud of you and I believe in you–do you?
-Mr. McGarity
