Faculty & Students
Faculty
The faculty of the Academy is comprised of the master teachers and visiting scholars who teach the juniors and, by association, the professors and instructors of WPI who teach the seniors. The four master teachers represent the core teaching staff. They are experienced, inventive, lively, thoughtful, caring adults – exemplary classroom practitioners. The visiting scholars, typically four, are equally intelligent and responsive. They come to the Academy to work and study alongside the master teachers, frequently contributing special expertise gained in previous teaching positions, industry, business or research. In turn, the outstanding professors and instructors of WPI provide university-level expectations and content in a dynamic and rigorous way.

Students
The 100 or so students of the Academy represent the geography of central Massachusetts and beyond. They are smart, motivated, challenging, friendly, and respectful adolescents, particularly adept at math and science, but by no means limited to these fields, as their poems, theatre productions, music recitals, and prowess in athletics will attest. As all adolescents, they experience good times and hard times to the max; but their determination to do well and desire to do good mark them as very special young people indeed.
