Located in Andover, New Hampshire, Proctor Academy is an independent boarding and day school for 380 students in grades 9-12. Its educational model combines a diverse campus-based academic program with unmatched off-campus experiential learning opportunities around the world that immerse students in different cultures and learning environments, helping them become truly global citizens.
Drawing inspiration from its motto “Live to Learn, Learn to Live,” Proctor Academy’s mission seeks to develop students whose lives demonstrate honesty, compassion, respect, and responsibility. While celebrating each student’s individual learning style, the school provides a challenging college preparatory curriculum augmented by five signature off-campus learning experiences and an integrated academic support program within a supportive community where adults and students call each other by their first name.
With over 135 academic courses, 30 art electives, and 30+ athletic teams offered, Proctor helps each student find and pursue their passions. At the heart of Proctor’s educational model are supportive relationships between faculty and students - in the classroom, dormitory, team, activity, and advisory. By redefining academic rigor as the process through which students push themselves beyond their comfort zones, students and faculty learn just how important trust is to learning, and that there is no better place to develop that
trust than at Proctor.
