Need Help with Your Teenage Boy?  Though Not in Oakboro, 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 like no 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. Within the structure and discipline of a military academy, wayward teenage boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Oakboro, 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 every state and internationally have turned their lives around at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept boys from across the nation, including from Oakboro, North Carolina.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is accessible from Oakboro, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to demonstrating the love of God to each student, surrounding him with compassionate care. Several of our staff have been in your shoes, either having been through 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 at the lowest rung of our level system. For the first months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to orderliness and chores provide them with structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and begin to increase in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive rather than their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, acquiring privileges and responsibilities along the way. The upper level military school cadet is eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most students who were failing or falling behind not only get caught up 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. Classes run year-round as students study at their own pace through top-notch 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

We emphasize spiritual life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Christ and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere conducive 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 intended for character growth.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we promote family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend seminars for teaching on boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Oakboro, North Carolina, Gateway could be the type of environment your son needs to generate a positive change. Please call or fill out our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
