Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Perry, Florida, 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 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 teenage boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Perry, 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 each of the 50 states and internationally have found a change of heart at Gateway Boys Academy. We  enroll boys from across the nation, including from Perry, Florida.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves boys 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 Perry, Florida and cities around 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. A number of our staff have been in your place, 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 start in our basic training platoon with the supervision of drill instructors. For the first few months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to neatness and chores provide them with structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys begin to stop struggling against authority and start to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive rather than their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, obtaining 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 Skilled Teachers. 

Most boys who have been failing or falling behind not just get up to date but get ahead. Gateway meets all qualifications by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas at the completion of our academic program. School takes place all year-round as students study 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 things are important at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Christ and strive to maintain a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Boys attend group Bible studies, go to chapel two times a week, and work with a counselor to pursue individually assigned Bible studies designed to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we promote family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend conferences for training about boundaries and constructive parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Perry, Florida, Gateway may be the sort of environment your boy needs to create a positive change. We invite you to call or submit our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
