  The Gates Chili school district opened in September 1956 as a consolidation of four Union free School districts, approved by voters of the four districts on December 8, 1955. The District celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2006.
  The average class size is 22 students, and 21 students. The student-teacher ratio is 13:1, 13:1.
  Christopher Dailey was selected by the Board of Education to serve as Superintendent of Schools beginning in July 2019. The former superintendent, Kimberle Ward, left the position in December 2018, with Carol Stehm serving as Interim Superintendent.
  The District's motto is “together we teach and inspire excellence for all learners.” The district recognizes four core values known as The Spartan Way. "Respect, Responsibility, Compassion, and Hardwork" is the Spartan Way.
