Course Description
Founded in 1848, Blair Academy is a dynamic, coeducational boarding school that engages 460 students in grades nine through twelve. On our historic campus, located 65 miles from New York City in northwestern New Jersey, students pursue a superior college preparatory education amid a rich, vibrant community life. Strong student-teacher relationships are at the heart of the Blair experience. Expert faculty members teach our classes to exacting standards, yet, at the same time, they truly know—and care about—our students as scholars, leaders, athletes, artists, friends and individuals. This knowledge fosters personalized learning opportunities and leads to higher academic achievement as students are continually challenged to reach their full potential.Two faculty members mentor each student as he or she explores passions and interests in and out of the classroom. Our robust curriculum offers core courses and innovative electives, including more than 50 honors, Advanced Placement and post-AP classes, and our emphasis on effective communication ensures students learn how to clearly articulate ideas and knowledge. Blair has a broad athletics program that emphasizes teamwork, resilience, self-discipline and sportsmanship. Students may choose from among 28 varsity and 18 JV and thirds teams in traditional high school sports, as well as golf, skiing, squash and crew. In all of our offerings, Blair prepares our students for success. Leadership education and meaningful service initiatives are infused throughout our community and curriculum, and students at every level learn and practice effective communication, team-based problem solving, ethical decision making and cross-cultural relationship building. Each is a critical skill that will not only help Blair graduates distinguish themselves at top colleges and universities, but, more importantly, find professional and personal fulfillment by making a difference in their communities and in the world.
