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

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenagers ages 11 to 17 who have gone off-track with life. Our military school is in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is accessible from Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina and cities throughout 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. Many of our staff have been in your place, 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 Our Military School

Students start in our basic training platoon beneath the supervision of drill instructors. For the first 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 learn to stop struggling against authority and start to gain confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, acquiring privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The trusted students are permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most students who were failing or falling behind not only get caught up but get ahead. We meet all standards [set 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 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 offer to every cadet a relationship with Christ and strive to keep a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice each week, and work with a counselor to complete 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 of enrollment for the cadet, parents begin attending weekend conferences to learn about boundaries and effective parenting.

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