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

Gateway Boys Academy serves young men ages 11 to 17 who have made rebellious choices in life. Our military school is situated in the panhandle of Florida, and our academy is reachable from Williamson, Georgia and cities throughout the nation. While the program is very disciplined and structured, we believe in demonstrating the love of God to each student, 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 son of their own in our military school in the past.

Boys are Transformed through Our Military School

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

At Gateway, boys learn to stop struggling against authority and begin to gain confidence by mastering challenges that are constructive as an alternative to their previously destructive activities. In time, they promote to higher levels, gaining privileges and responsibilities as they move up. The upper level military school cadet is permitted to participate in off-campus sports, outreaches, and travel.

Academic Success through Top-Notch Curriculum and Certified Teachers. 

Most students who have been failing or falling behind not just get up to date but get far ahead. Gateway meets all standards [set by Florida for high school graduation, and students earn diplomas when they complete our academic program. Our academy operates year-round as students work 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 Relationship with God, 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 establish a Godly atmosphere conducive to Christian growth. Students attend group Bible studies, go to chapel twice each week, and meet with a counselor to complete individually assigned Bible studies designed to build character.

Family Restoration is Our Hallmark

At Gateway Boys Academy, we give attention to family restoration. After four months of enrollment for the cadet, parents begin attending weekend events for teaching on boundaries and constructive parenting.

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