Gould Academy
What do you want out of high school? How will you plan your journey At Gould Academy, we can help you blaze your own trail and follow your passions, whatever those may be.
Our location in the White Mountains of western Maine gives us a unique outdoor classroom right at our doorstep. Our online learning component gives flexibility to skiers and freethinkers alike.
Want to explore robotics with the school’s Navy-class REMUS submarine in the local pond? Maybe you’d like to explore the school’s 40 kilometres of trails on your mountain bike or build your own skis in the IDEAS Center. Or experience a home-stay in Morocco or Ecuador on the Ninth Grade Four Point trip.
Gould is a small, co-ed, independent boarding school where faculty do their best to say ‘yes,’ where students have flexibility to try new things in new ways. Here, students celebrate each other, take risks, experiment, because we know that education is about the journey, about being in the NOW. We celebrate the creative process, not just the outcomes.
Our mission is to prepare academically motivated students for college and help them to become independent-minded, ethical citizens who will lead lives of purpose, action, excellence, and compassion in a dynamic world.
