Bridgton Academy is an all-male college preparatory school in Bridgton, Maine. Founded in 1808, the school is located at the northern tip of Long Lake in North Bridgton, Maine. The school has been NEASC-accredited since 1934, making it one of the oldest accredited schools in the country.[1] The school is also a member of the National Association of Independent Schools.

The 55-acre (22 ha) campus holds 24 buildings. The majority of classes are held in the new Humanities Center. There are seven dormitories on campus ranging in capacity from 18-55 students. In recent history, the school has expanded its number of two-year students, allowing for students to complete their high school diploma at Bridgton, as well as spending their second, prep, year at the Academy.[2]
