Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Brevard, North Carolina, 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 are a military academy, an accredited school, and 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. Similar to the structure and order of a military school, at Gateway wayward teenage boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Brevard, North Carolina, 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 every state and internationally have put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  serve boys from across the country, including from Brevard, North Carolina.

Our Understanding, Staff Teach Our Boarding School Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is reachable from Brevard, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to demonstrating the love of God to each student, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your shoes, 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 Our Military School

Students begin in our basic training platoon with the supervision of drill instructors. For the first few months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to neatness and chores give them structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys figure out how to stop struggling against authority and start to increase in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive instead of their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, earning privileges and responsibilities along the way. The highest level student is permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most students who were failing or falling behind not only get caught up but get far ahead. Gateway meets all qualifications by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Our academy operates year-round as students work at their own speed through high-quality 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 Relationship with God, Direction and Purpose In Life

Spiritual things are important at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus and strive to maintain a Godly atmosphere favorable to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice weekly, and work with a counselor to pursue individually assigned Bible studies designed for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we concentrate on family restoration. After four months, parents begin attending weekend seminars to learn about boundaries and constructive parenting.

Most students in our program turn away from their self-destructive behavior to a desire for serving others. If your son needs order and discipline to put his life in order, please consider Gateway.

Although it is not located in Brevard, North Carolina, Gateway may be the sort of environment your teen needs to make a change for the better. Please call or fill out our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
