History
What sets WMA apart from other schools is our combination of community and academics. We are part small, local, nurturing school and part cutting-edge preparation for college and the world beyond. As the country’s 10th oldest boarding school, Wilbraham & Monson Academy has been educating global citizens and world leaders since 1804. Today, we educate young women and men from 31 different countries. Our state-of-the-art Center for Entrepreneurial & Global Studies includes the only high school stock and bond trading center in the country, which includes a brand new (in Sept. 2012) Bloomberg monitor. Add to this more than 40 honors and AP classes, championship athletics, Fine & Performing Arts courses, student leadership opportunities, and a student/teacher ratio of 6:1, and you will see just how much WMA can offer!
