Culver Academies, Private boarding school and summer camp in Culver, Indiana.
Culver Academies is a private boarding high school in northern Indiana that operates separate programs for boys and girls on a shared campus. The grounds include classroom buildings, sports facilities, dormitories, and a small lake used for aquatic activities.
Henry Harrison Culver founded the school in 1894 with a focus on military training for boys. Over time, summer programs and a separate academy for girls were added, shaping the institution into its current form.
Students participate in 194 courses, including 57 art programs and 24 Advanced Placement classes, while engaging in leadership training throughout their academic journey.
The school does not welcome walk-in visitors without prior arrangement, as it is a closed educational facility for enrolled students. Those wishing to see the campus should schedule an official tour in advance.
The lake on campus is used for sailing instruction and rowing training during summer months, with boats stored in a dedicated boathouse. The military tradition remains visible today through parades and uniforms in certain programs.
