Need Help with Your Teenage Boy?  Though Not in Fairmont, 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 have a military academy, 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. Under the structure and discipline of a military academy, wayward teenage boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Fairmont, 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 turned their lives around at Gateway Boys Academy. We  serve young men from around the country, including from Fairmont, North Carolina.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our military school is in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is reachable from Fairmont, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we focus on demonstrating the love of God to every single cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. A number of our staff have been in your place, either having attended a similar program themselves or having enrolled a teen of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Gateway Boys Academy

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

At Gateway, boys begin to stop struggling against authority and begin to grow in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive instead of their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities along the way. The trusted students are allowed to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Skilled Teachers. 

Most boys who were failing or falling behind not only catch up but pull ahead. Gateway meets all standards [set by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. Our school operates year-round as students study at their own speed through top-notch curriculum and certified teachers. Our high standards allow credits to transfer 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 Christ and strive to establish a Godly atmosphere helpful to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services two times a week, and work with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies intended for character growth.

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 events for teaching on boundaries and constructive parenting.

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

Although not located in Fairmont, North Carolina, Gateway may be the sort of environment your boy needs to make a change for the better. We invite you to call or complete our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
