Need HELP WITH A BOY THAT IS FAILING IN SCHOOL AND LIFE?  Though Not in Alachua, Florida, Would You Take a Look At Gateway Christian Military School in Florida Instead?

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida like no other. We include an accredited school, as well as a working ranch and farm, as well as counseling and mentoring, competitive team sports, a spiritual emphasis, and hands-on outreach to help disadvantaged people in third-world countries. All of these are meant to bring about change in a boy’s heart and life. Under the structure and order of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Alachua, Florida, You Can Set the Stage for a New Start and a New Direction for Your Boy by Having Him Come to Gateway

Over 1000 boys from all 50 states and internationally have put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  serve young men from across the nation, including from Alachua, Florida.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our Boarding School Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenagers ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our military school is in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is reachable from Alachua, Florida and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to each and every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. A number of our staff have been in your situation, either having been through a similar program themselves or having enrolled a teen of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Gateway Boys Academy

Students start in our basic training platoon under the supervision of drill instructors. For the first months, physical exercise, a packed schedule, attention to orderliness and chores surround them with structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys figure out how to stop struggling against authority and begin to grow in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities in the process. The trusted students are allowed to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most teens who have been failing or falling behind not just get up to date but get ahead. We meet all standards [set by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Classes run all year long as students work at their own speed through top-notch curriculum and certified teachers. Our high standards allow transfers to public institutions or to go on to college or the military.

Boys Discover a New Spiritual Relationship, Direction, and Purpose In Life

Spiritual life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus and strive to establish a Godly atmosphere conducive to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services two times a week, and work with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies designed for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we give attention to family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend seminars for training about boundaries and constructive parenting.

Most boys in our program turn from their self-destructive behavior to a lifetime of serving others. If your teenage boy needs order and discipline to change his direction, please consider Gateway.

Although not located in Alachua, Florida, Gateway may be the sort of environment your boy needs to produce a change for the better. Please call or submit our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
