Our Understanding, 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 in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is accessible from Harpers Ferry, West Virginia and cities throughout the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your situation, either having completed 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

Boys begin in our basic training platoon with the supervision of drill instructors. For the first few months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to orderliness 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, earning privileges and responsibilities in the process. The senior level military school cadet is able to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most boys who had been failing or falling behind not just get up to date but get ahead. We meet all standards [set by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas at the completion of our academic program. Classes run year-round as students work 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 life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Jesus and strive to create a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice each week, and work with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies intended to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway, we focus on family restoration. After four months, parents begin attending weekend seminars for training about 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 turn his life around, please consider Gateway.
