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

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida like no other.

Though not in Commerce, Georgia, 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 changed the course of their lives at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept young men from all around the nation, including from Commerce, Georgia.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenage boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our military school is in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is reachable from Commerce, Georgia and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we focus on demonstrating the love of God to every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. A few 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 Military School

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

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and start to grow in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, earning privileges and responsibilities along the way. The senior level military school cadet is allowed to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Skilled Teachers. 

Most students who had been failing or falling behind not just catch up but get ahead. Gateway meets all established by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas at the completion of our academic program. School takes place year-round as students study at their own pace through first-rate 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

We emphasize spiritual life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Jesus Christ and strive to maintain a Godly atmosphere favorable to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice a week, and work with a counselor to discuss individually assigned Bible studies intended 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 positive parenting.

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

Although not located in Commerce, Georgia, Gateway may be the kind of environment your boy needs to make a change for the better. We invite you to call or fill out our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
