Welcome to a Newly Reimagined Academy Summer!
This summer brings exciting growth and fresh possibilities at Albany Academy! Our redesigned Academy Summer programs introduce new offerings, specialty experiences, and opportunities for students from kindergarten through grade 12 to discover, explore, and grow. Learn more about what's new.
From our youngest learners trying something for the first time to older students diving deeper into their unique interests, we've designed programs that feel both purposeful and fun. You'll find exceptional Albany Academy faculty alongside highly regarded educators from across the region—people who truly love what they do and bring that energy to every program.
With expanded before-and-after options like Mindful Morning and our new Four O'Clock Club, plus flexible scheduling to match your family's needs, Academy Summer is designed to work for both kids AND parents.
"My goal has been simple: to create the most joyful, enriching, and memorable summer possible for every child who joins us."
