Our Understanding, Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is reachable from Lavonia, Georgia and cities throughout the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we focus on demonstrating the love of God to every single cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your place, either having been through 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 start in our basic training platoon with the supervision of drill instructors. For the first few months, physical exercise, a packed schedule, attention to neatness and chores surround them with structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys begin to stop struggling against authority and start to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, gaining privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The upper level military school cadet is allowed to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Skilled Teachers. 

Most boys who were failing or falling behind not only get up to date but pull 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. School takes place year-round as students study at their own speed through high-quality 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

Spiritual life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Christ and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere favorable to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services two times a week, and work with a counselor to discuss individually assigned Bible studies designed for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

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

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

Although it is not located in Lavonia, Georgia, Gateway could be the sort of environment your son needs to make a change for the better. Please call or fill in our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
