Need Help with Your Teenage Boy?  Though Not in Farmville, Virginia, 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 like no other. We are 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. Within the structure and order of a military academy, wayward teenage boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Farmville, 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 every state and internationally have found a change of heart at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept teen boys from across the country, including from Farmville, Virginia.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenagers ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is reachable from Farmville, Virginia and cities throughout the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to demonstrating the love of God to each and every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your situation, either having attended 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

Boys begin in our basic training platoon with 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 realize they can stop struggling against authority and begin to grow in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive rather than their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, gaining privileges and responsibilities along the way. The highest level student 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 only catch up but pull ahead. We meet all requirements 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 work at their own speed through high-quality 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 Relationship with God, Direction and Purpose In Life

We emphasize spiritual life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Jesus and strive to create a Godly atmosphere conducive to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel two times a week, and work with a counselor to discuss individually assigned Bible studies meant for character growth.

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 training about boundaries and positive parenting.

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

Although not located in Farmville, Virginia, Gateway may be the kind of environment your teen needs to produce a positive change. We invite you to call or complete our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
