Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Clyde, North Carolina, Would You Consider Gateway Christian Military School in Florida Instead?

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida unlike any 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 designed to bring about change in a boy’s heart and life. When given the structure and discipline of a military school, wayward teen boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Clyde, 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 put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  enroll teen boys from all around the nation, including from Clyde, North Carolina.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our 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 accessible from Clyde, North Carolina and cities around 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. Several of our staff have been in your situation, either having attended a similar program themselves or having enrolled a son of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Gateway Boys Academy

Students begin in our basic training platoon under 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 gain confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, gaining privileges and responsibilities in the process. The upper level military school cadet is able to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most boys who had been failing or falling behind not only get caught up but get far ahead. We meet all qualifications by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Our school operates all year round as students study at their own pace through top-notch curriculum and certified teachers. Our high standards allow students to transfer back 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 and strive to maintain a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice each week, and meet with a counselor to complete 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 conferences for training about boundaries and constructive parenting.

Most boys in our program turn away from their self-destructive behavior to an attitude of serving others. If your teenager needs order and discipline to turn his life around, please consider Gateway.

Although it is not located in Clyde, North Carolina, Gateway can be the sort of environment your boy needs to create a positive change. Please call or complete our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
