Due to declining student numbers and reduced state revenue, the school committee voted to consolidate elementary schools (thereby closing Blandford Elementary School, R.H. Conwell Elementary School (Worthington) and Russell Elementary School). Students that normally would have attended those schools now go to Littleville Elementary School in Huntington, or Chester Elementary School in Chester. RH Conwell re-opened under the name of RH Conwell Community Education Center for the 2010-2011 school year and is now run as a private school by residents of the town of Worthington.

It is affiliated with two non-profit organizations: Mass 1to1, which leases laptops and tablets to students, with a $1 buy-out option at the end of the lease) and the Gateway Education Foundation, which raises and disburses funds to enhance the educational opportunities for its students. Gateway is also affiliated with a number of community organizations, for the benefit of the schools and larger community. Daily after-school opportunities are available to Middle School and Junior High School students through the Collaborative for Educational Services in Northampton. Elementary schools offer after-school mini courses; Littleville Elementary School also offers a Wrap-Around Program before and after school--including school vacations and many holidays--for families. The Gateway Wellness Center is a gym that features treadmills, elliptical trainers, stationary bikes, free weights and nautilus equipment to students during the day and to staff and community members (by membership) before and after school, and Saturday mornings.
