Need HELP WITH A BOY THAT IS FAILING IN SCHOOL AND LIFE?  Though Not in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, 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 include 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 order of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon become respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

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

Our Friendly 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 campus is located in the panhandle of Florida, and our academy is accessible from Santa Rosa Beach, Florida and cities around the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we commit to demonstrating the love of God to each and every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your place, either having completed a similar program themselves or having enrolled a child of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Our Military School

Boys begin in our basic training platoon under the supervision of drill instructors. For the initial months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to orderliness and chores give them structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys realize they can stop struggling against authority and begin to increase in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The senior behavioral level student is eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through High-Quality Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most teens who had been failing or falling behind not only get caught up but get far ahead. We meet all qualifications by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. School takes place 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 Spiritual Relationship, 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 helpful to Christian growth. Young men attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice a week, and spend time with a counselor to discuss individually assigned Bible studies intended for character development.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway, we focus on family restoration. Four months after the cadet enrolls, parents begin attending weekend seminars for training about boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although not located in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, Gateway can be the kind of environment your son needs to produce a change for the better. Please call or fill in our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
