From
your first sight of the tall white spire
of the original Academy Building against
the blue sky, you will feel the strength
of Washington Academy's mission.
Since
John Hancock signed the school's charter
in 1792, Washington Academy has had
one goal: providing students with the
finest secondary education possible.
Over the years, Washington Academy
has grown to meet the needs of today's
high school students as they face modern
challenges. As well as an extensive
curriculum for college preparation,
Washington Academy offers business and
vocational studies and a plentiful selection
of sports and extracurricular activities.
Affordable tuition rates make it one
of the best values among boarding, private
secondary and college preparatory schools
in Maine and New England.
Currently we average 350 students here at Washington
Academy. Many of them come from nearby
small communities. Domestic and international students
who wish to attend high school in the
United States find Washington Academy
an excellent choice for learning English,
making lifelong friends, and getting
an enriching, top-quality American education.
Local students, students throughout the United States, and students from various countries help make up our student population. Some of the countries represented by international
students over the past few years include Bermuda, Chile, China, France, Germany, Hungary, Jamaica, Japan, Korea,
Poland, Russia, Serbia, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, Venezuela, and Vietnam
making Washington Academy
truly a global community.
Are you a student who is excited about
life and learning? Are you looking for
a historic, private New England boarding
school with a fresh approach to education?
Do you want to find a school where you
can be yourself—and find friends
who aren't afraid to be individuals?
Then we think you'd be happy at Washington
Academy. We invite you to apply.
