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

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenage boys ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our school is reachable from Seagrove, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we focus on demonstrating the love of God to each student, 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 son 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 exercise, 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 start to gain confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive instead of their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, gaining privileges and responsibilities in the process. The trusted students are permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most teens who have been failing or falling behind not only get up to date but get ahead. Gateway meets all standards [set by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Our academy operates all year long as students work at their own pace through high-quality 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

Spiritual life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus and strive to establish a Godly atmosphere helpful to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice each week, and meet with a counselor to discuss 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 events to learn about boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Seagrove, North Carolina, Gateway may be the sort of environment your teen needs to produce a positive change. We invite you to call or submit our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
