Need HELP WITH A BOY THAT IS FAILING IN SCHOOL AND LIFE?  Though Not in Swannanoa, North Carolina, Would You Consider Gateway Christian Military School in Florida Instead?

Gateway Boys Academy is a lower cost military school in West Florida like no other. We have a military academy, 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. With the structure and discipline of a military academy, wayward teenage boys soon turn into respectful, confident leaders and responsible citizens.

Though not in Swannanoa, North Carolina, 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 put their lives back on track at Gateway Boys Academy. We  enroll teen boys from across the nation, including from Swannanoa, North Carolina.

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

Gateway Boys Academy serves teenagers ages 11 to 17 who have chosen a dangerous path in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our academy is accessible from Swannanoa, North Carolina and cities across the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to every cadet, surrounding him with compassionate care. Many of our staff have been in your situation, either having attended a similar program themselves or having enrolled a teen of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Gateway Boys Academy

Students begin at the bottom rung of our level system. For the initial few months, physical training, a packed schedule, attention to neatness and chores surround them with structure and establish order in their lives.

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and start to grow in confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as opposed to their previously destructive activities. Eventually, they promote to higher levels, obtaining privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The trusted students are eligible for off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through First-Rate Curriculum and Passionate Teachers. 

Most students who have been failing or falling behind not only get caught up but pull ahead. We meet all qualifications by the State of Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they graduate our academic program. Our academy operates 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 life forms a large part of life at Gateway Boys Academy. We offer to every cadet a relationship with Christ and strive to create a Godly atmosphere encouraging to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel two times a week, and work with a counselor to discuss individually assigned Bible studies intended 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 seminars for teaching on boundaries and effective parenting.

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

Although it is not located in Swannanoa, North Carolina, Gateway can be just the environment your boy needs to produce a change for the better. We invite you to call or fill out our inquiry form for our boarding school today.
