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

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenage boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our academy is accessible from Johnsonville, South Carolina and cities around the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we focus on demonstrating the love of God to each student, surrounding him with compassionate care. Several 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 Christian Military School

Boys begin at the lowest rung of our level system. For the initial months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to neatness and chores give them structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys figure out how to stop struggling against authority and begin to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities along the way. The senior level military school cadet is permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Passionate 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 when they complete our academic program. Our academy operates year-round as students work at their own speed through first-rate 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 Relationship with God, Direction and Purpose In Life

Spiritual life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus Christ and strive to establish a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice weekly, and meet with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies designed to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we concentrate on family restoration. After four months, parents begin attending weekend seminars to learn about boundaries and positive parenting.

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