Friends Academy

Friends Academy is a coeducational, independent day school in North Dartmouth, Massachusetts serving students in Early Childhood through Grade 8 with an inquiry-based academic curriculum that both challenges and encourages - set within a respectful and supportive community that sees and cares about each individual. The mission of Friends Academy is to provide each student with an educational foundation that will instill the academic knowledge, skills, and understanding; responsible citizenship; respect for diversity and differences; and sense of well-being needed for a lifetime of learning and personal growth. From our play-based Early Childhood at the Farmhouse, to the individual guidance Middle School students receive when choosing a secondary school, Friends Academy is a school where students and teachers build strong relationships with one another. In intentionally small classes, amid a beautiful 65-acre campus, our talented and dedicated faculty shape teachable moments that repeatedly demonstrate that there are many ways to learn, and that questions are just as important as answers.
