Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Hurt, 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 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 order of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Hurt, 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 all 50 states and internationally have put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  serve teen boys from around the country, including from Hurt, Virginia.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is reachable from Hurt, Virginia and cities across 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 shoes, either having attended 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 at the lowest rung of our level system. For the first few 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. In time, they promote to higher levels, acquiring privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The highest level student is eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Skilled Teachers. 

Most boys who were failing or falling behind not only get up to date but get ahead. Gateway meets all standards [set by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas at the completion of our academic program. School takes place all year-round as students work 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 Relationship with God, 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 maintain a Godly atmosphere helpful to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice a week, and spend time with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies intended to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we concentrate on family restoration. After four months, parents begin attending weekend conferences for training about boundaries and constructive parenting.

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

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