Houghton Academy
is a coeducational, Christian, college preparatory school established in 1883. The Academy is a traditional boarding school where motivated and capable students come to prepare for college. Over ninety percent of Academy graduates attend a four-year university immediately after graduation. The Academy’s location and size fosters a strong, supportive school community. Independent and mature students are encouraged to apply. Houghton Academy offers a positive environment where academic success is held in high regard. The small town in which the school is located offers a safe and secure environment for secondary students to live and study. Because of the international boarding demographic at Houghton Academy, both the American and the international students have a unique opportunity to share and unite their cultures through communication in class time, after-school activities, and dorm life. In addition to a strong academic program, the school offers a considerable array of athletic, artistic, musical, literary, and performing-arts extra-curricular activities.
