Need Help with Your Teenage Boy?  Though Not in Nashville, North Carolina, Would You Consider Gateway Christian Military School in Florida Instead?

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida unlike any other. We are 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 teenage boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Nashville, North Carolina, You Can Set the Stage for a New Start and a New Direction for Your Boy by Having Him Spend Time Here

Over 1000 boys from each of the 50 states and internationally have put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  enroll boys from all around the nation, including from Nashville, North Carolina.

Our Compassionate Staff Teach Our Students a Better Way to Live

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is accessible from Nashville, North Carolina and cities around 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 few of our staff have been in your situation, either having attended a similar program themselves or having enrolled a teen of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Our Military School

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

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and start to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, earning privileges and responsibilities along the way. The upper level military school cadet is allowed to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most teens who were failing or falling behind not only 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. Our school operates all year long as students work at their own speed through first-rate 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 Spiritual Relationship, 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 Jesus and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services two times a week, and work with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies intended for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway, we focus on family restoration. After four months of enrollment for the cadet, parents begin attending weekend seminars for training about boundaries and constructive parenting.

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

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