Curriculum - Suffield Academy

Academic offerings at Suffield Academy derive from our faith in the liberal arts as a foundation for learning and our programming balances a strong core curriculum with unique elective courses. We provide an environment where students find support from both teachers and peers, where they learn in and out of the classroom, on and off campus. The typical course load for most students each term is five full-credit courses.

Suffield’s academic and educational goals are to:

Teach a broad range of academic disciplines
Teach skills & habits focused on organization, communication,
reasoning, reading, writing, and researching
Teach students to be critical and disciplined thinkers
Provide a structured, encouraging environment
Offer courses with a balance of challenge and support
