Friends Academy has given me the opportunity to pursue my love for science to a great extent. The science classes have given me an understanding far greater than any other student my age. The resources Friends Academy provides helps me learn and develop to the greatest extent.

My daughter attended Friends Academy from K-12 and she thrived. She was supported throughout her academic career and athletic recruiting journey. She was as a scholar athlete which afforded her acceptance to many prestigious universities and scholarships.

This community teaches strong core values with an emphasis on compassion and kindness. The academics are strong a...

Sending our daughter to Friends Academy was the best decision we ever made. It has a very strong curriculum and creates a wonderful environment for learning. We love the sense of community we feel at Friends and have embraced the Quaker values. When the school closed last year due to COVID-19, Frien...
