Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Maiden, North Carolina, Would You Take a Look At 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 designed to bring about change in a boy’s heart and life. Under the structure and discipline of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Maiden, North Carolina, 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 every state and internationally have changed the course of their lives at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept boys from across the country, including from Maiden, North Carolina.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have chosen a dangerous path in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our academy is reachable from Maiden, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to demonstrating the love of God to every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. A number of our staff have been in your situation, 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 Gateway Boys Academy

Boys begin at the lowest rung of our level system. 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 figure out how to stop struggling against authority and start to increase in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive rather than their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities in the process. The trusted students are eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most boys who had been failing or falling behind not just catch up but get ahead. We meet all qualifications by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. School takes place year-round as students work at their own pace through high-quality 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 strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Christ and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice weekly, and meet with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies meant for character development.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway, we focus on family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend events for training about boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Maiden, North Carolina, Gateway could be the type of environment your teen needs to produce a positive change. We invite you to call or fill in our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
