Our Friendly Staff Teach Our Boarding School Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have chosen a dangerous path in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is accessible from Hayesville, North Carolina and cities across 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 completed a similar program themselves or having enrolled a son of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Gateway Boys Academy

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

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and begin to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities along the way. The highest level student is eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most students who had been failing or falling behind not just catch up but get far ahead. We meet all standards [set by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. Our academy operates all year round as students study at their own pace through top-notch 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 strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere helpful to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice weekly, and meet with a counselor to pursue individually assigned Bible studies intended for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we promote family restoration. After four months of enrollment for the cadet, parents begin attending weekend conferences for teaching on boundaries and positive parenting.

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