Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in China Grove, 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 unlike any 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. With the structure and order of a military school, wayward teenage boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in China Grove, North Carolina, You Can Set the Stage for a New Start and a New Direction for Your Boy by Having Him Spend Time Here

Over 1000 boys from each of the 50 states and internationally have found a change of heart at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept teen boys from across the country, including from China Grove, North Carolina.

Our Friendly Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is reachable from China Grove, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to every single cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. A number of our staff have been in your shoes, either having been through a similar program themselves or having enrolled a child of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through our Christian Military School

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

At Gateway, boys realize they can stop struggling against authority and start to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The senior behavioral level student is eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most boys 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 at the completion of our academic program. Classes run all year long as students study at their own pace 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 things are important at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus Christ and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere conducive to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice a week, and work with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies intended to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we concentrate on family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend conferences for teaching on boundaries and positive parenting.

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

Although it is not located in China Grove, North Carolina, Gateway can be the sort of environment your teen needs to create a positive change. We invite you to call or submit our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
