Wilbraham & Monson Academy
Wilbraham, Massachusetts
Wilbraham & Monson Academy is an independent, college preparatory, coeducational school for boarding and day students. Students and teachers from throughout the United States and around the world live and learn in a caring and supportive community, enriched by its two-hundred-year heritage of inclusion. To prepare each student for the challenges of higher education and for success as a global leader in an interdependent world, we promote intellectual development, physical health, personal accountability, mutual respect, and commitment to service. We encourage students to take advantage of the many opportunities we offer to travel and study abroad, especially in Asia. Many of these opportunities are offered through our Center for Entrepreneurial & Global Studies, a program unique at the secondary school level.
