Academy Hill is a private, independent day school serving bright, motivated students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Our students travel daily to Springfield from more than fifteen towns in Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut. They represent a great diversity of backgrounds, interests, and talents. Together, they form a close-knit, dynamic, family of learners.

We recognize that educating a young mind takes a commitment to nurturing the whole child. We nurture the heart by creating a warm, edifying community environment. We nurture the mind by cultivating lifelong habits of reflection and inquiry. We nurture the spirit by inspiring decency, industry, and responsibility.

With the caliber of students we invite to be part of our community, with our approach to expanding their minds, and with our commitment to the benefits of a small school, we have the luxury of truly getting down to the business (and fun) of learning.

The hiring and admissions practices, educational program, and school culture of Academy Hill reflect an appreciation for diversity—including, but not limited to, diversity of race, religion, gender, ethnicity, and social and economic background. For our full policy, contact the school by phone at 413-788-0300 or by mail at 1190 Liberty Street, Springfield, MA 01104.
