Berwick Academy was founded in 1791 to promote "Virtue and useful knowledge among the rising generations." For over 200 years the Academy has pursued its mission through a classical education of the whole person. We prepare students to prosper academically in college and to enjoy an enduring commitment to the life of the mind. We teach the creative process of the arts emphasizing performance and exhibition. We promote athletic and physical development within an ethic of sportsmanship. We nurture strength of character, individual responsibility, and a commitment to the common good. Berwick students, teachers, and families comprise a community of learners that instills the ethic of personal excellence. The Academy is one school with three divisions each designed to broaden and deepen the foundations of virtue and knowledge for the continuing development of each student's potential. We take pride in our students' accomplishments and unabashedly sing their praises to the "Hilltop." The goal of "giving one's best" is at the core of our mission. Whether the challenge is found in the classroom, on stage, or on the playing field, the Berwick community joins together in preparing students to become valuable contributors for future years.
