Need HELP WITH A BOY THAT IS FAILING IN SCHOOL AND LIFE?  Though Not in Melbourne Beach, Florida, Would You Consider Gateway Christian Military School in Florida Instead?

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida like no other. We are a military academy, an accredited school, and 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. Within the structure and order of a military school, wayward teen boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Melbourne Beach, Florida, 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 changed the course of their lives at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept boys from across the nation, including from Melbourne Beach, Florida.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our campus is reachable from Melbourne Beach, Florida and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to every single cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Several of our staff have been in your place, either having completed a similar program themselves or having enrolled a teen of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through our Christian Military School

Students begin in our basic training platoon with the supervision of drill instructors. For the initial few months, physical exercise, 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 get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive rather than their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, earning privileges and responsibilities along the way. The trusted students are permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Skilled Teachers. 

Most students who have been failing or falling behind not only get up to date but get far ahead. Gateway meets all standards [set by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. Our school operates year-round as students work at their own speed through first-rate 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 Relationship with God, 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 favorable to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services two times a week, and work with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies intended to build character.

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 events for training about boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Melbourne Beach, Florida, Gateway may be the type of environment your son needs to produce a change for the better. We invite you to call or complete our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
