Berwick Academy, University-preparatory school in South Berwick, Maine, United States.
The campus extends across 72 acres featuring historical buildings, modern facilities, and a distinctive quadrangle design incorporating educational and administrative structures.
Founded in 1791 as Maine's oldest academy, the institution originated on a 10-acre plot donated by a local judge to fulfill Massachusetts education requirements.
The school maintains an 8:1 student-teacher ratio for its 560 students, fostering individual attention and academic development through small class interactions.
Students from preschool through grade 12 receive instruction in multiple subjects within facilities that combine preserved historical architecture and contemporary learning spaces.
The grounds showcase landscape elements designed by Frederick Law Olmsted's firm, including stone retaining walls and a horseshoe-shaped carriage driveway from 1894.
