Vermont Academy

Founded in 1876, Vermont Academy is a small, independent boarding and day school serving 220 students in the foothills of the Green Mountains. We are renowned for our tight-knit community that fosters natural interests, free-thinking, and lifelong growth. We teach our students how to rely on their inner compass and head toward their true north. Vermont Academy’s educational philosophy is based on four historic values: ingenuity, independence, community, and love of the land. Our commitment to these values helps to encourage self-advocacy and independence in students. Vermont Academy's recent merger with Mount Snow Academy offers student-athletes the opportunity to pursue their passion for sports-on-snow while immersing themselves in a comprehensive college preparatory academic program and vibrant community. This dynamic Vermont Academy at Mount Snow experience offers a unique opportunity to attend a ski academy embedded within a traditional boarding school.
