MAKING VIRTUOUS YOUNG MEN
For over a century, Army and Navy Academy has been dedicated solely to the education and development of young men. While boys can and do excel academically in many types of educational institutions, a school built for the needs of this generation’s boys doesn’t just promote success in the classroom: it offers a pathway for boys to become young men of character. What sets the Academy apart from other boys’ schools is our century-old military tradition, which manifests in an engaging, supportive, standards-based, and structured environment with a governing honor code. Within our unique culture, boys are taught and mentored to explore their values and develop virtues that help them achieve human excellence.

THE ARMY AND NAVY ACADEMY DIFFERENCE
Army and Navy Academy offers exceptional teachers, rigorous athletics, and a nationally recognized leadership program. At a time when many boys are struggling in the classroom and to find their place in society, the Academy employs evidence-based single-gender education techniques proven to help boys learn better and thrive in life. Graduates of the Academy follow life paths carved from self-determination and built through intellectual curiosity, self-understanding, and confidence developed here.
SINGLE-GENDER MODEL. Boys in middle school and high school have educational needs that are not being met in most public and private school settings. The current generation of boys is falling behind in school, resulting in a crisis in higher education. We use relational teaching, a highly structured academic day, differentiated instruction, and active learning to meet the unique educational needs of young men, helping them to thrive and develop both the confidence and the capability to excel in college and far beyond.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. We also aim to shape our students into ethical, responsible, well-rounded members of society. This helps young men to develop resilience and grit in the face of life’s many challenges. Character development programs are proven to improve academic outcomes, but more importantly, they prepare our graduates to live meaningful, fulfilling lives.
