Need Help with Your Teenage Boy?  Though Not in Fairfax Station, Virginia, Would You Give Some Consideration to 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. With the structure and discipline of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Fairfax Station, Virginia, 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 each of the 50 states and internationally have changed the course of their lives at Gateway Boys Academy. We  enroll young men from all around the nation, including from Fairfax Station, Virginia.

Our Friendly Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have chosen a dangerous path in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is reachable from Fairfax Station, Virginia and cities around the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to 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 completed a similar program themselves or having enrolled a son of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through our Christian Military School

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

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and begin to gain confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, acquiring privileges and responsibilities in the process. The senior level military school cadet is permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most students who have been failing or falling behind not just get caught up but get ahead. We meet all qualifications by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Classes run 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

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 conducive to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice weekly, and meet with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies meant for character development.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we give attention to family restoration. After four months of enrollment for the cadet, parents begin attending weekend conferences for training about boundaries and positive parenting.

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