Need Help with a Wayward Son?  Though Not in Sparta, Georgia, 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 include 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. With the structure and order of a military academy, wayward teen boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Sparta, Georgia, 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 each of the 50 states and internationally have turned their lives around at Gateway Boys Academy. We  accept teen boys from all around the nation, including from Sparta, Georgia.

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 military school is in the panhandle of Florida, and our facility is accessible from Sparta, Georgia and cities throughout 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. Several of our staff have been in your place, either having been through a similar program themselves or having enrolled a son of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through our Christian Military School

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

At Gateway, boys figure out how to stop struggling against authority and begin to get confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. Over time, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities along the way. The upper level military school cadet is able to do off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most teens who were failing or falling behind not just catch up but get ahead. We meet all established by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Our academy operates all year round as students study at their own pace through first-rate curriculum and certified teachers. Our high standards allow credits to transfer to public institutions or to go on to college or the military.

Boys Discover a New Relationship with God, Direction and Purpose In Life

Spiritual things are important at Gateway Boys Academy. We strive to introduce every cadet to a relationship with Jesus Christ and strive to maintain a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel services twice a week, and work with a counselor for individually assigned Bible studies meant to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway, we focus on family restoration. After four months, parents begin attending weekend conferences to learn about boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although not located in Sparta, Georgia, Gateway could be just the environment your teen needs to produce a change for the better. Please call or submit our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
