Story

Incorporated in 1854, Norwich Free Academy has always operated as a privately endowed secondary school governed by its appointed board of trustees. The campus-like atmosphere, with its unique architectural spaces, accommodates the community and helps develop creativity and exploration for students. Our independent status safeguards our traditions and has fostered innovative responses to the needs of our student population. Our rich history, distinctive traditions and independence encourage generous financial support and active participation from trustees and alumni. Our large, culturally diverse population supports rich, broad course offerings, outstanding athletic programs and numerous clubs and activities, all designed to develop the intellect, engage and employ the interest and instill a passion for learning. Academy students become productive and responsible adults. The Norwich Free Academy draws strength from its independence. We balance a commitment to excellence and care for each student.

Mission

Since 1856, Norwich Free Academy has adhered to the philosophy of its founder to “return to our hamlets and our homes its priceless freight of youthful minds, enriched by learning, developed by a liberal culture, refined by study of all that is beautiful in nature and art, and prepared for the highest usefulness and the purest happiness.”
~Founder, John P. Gulliver, NFA Dedication Ceremony (1856)

It was ok. I liked that there were different buildings so we could walk more and have some fresh air after working hard in class. There's a lot of things to learn here. I've met very nice and inspirational teachers but also like 3 teachers that were mean. Overall I think it's a great school to attend to.

I went there for 2yrs. This high school allowed me to graduate with 2 children. They had daycare on sight, I could go see my kids at any time I wanted to. Norwich Free Academy was a great school. I am class of 1994

The school requires that you wear an odd uniform that looks like a red banana suit, which I am not a fan of, and the food hold no comparison to that of Corrigan (I would pack a lunch if I were you). Spoiler Alert...If you call the school and get put on hold, expect to get Rick Rolled. Also if you don't stay in the right lane in the hallways (like a public road) you will most definitely get screamed at by the staff, yelling "VIOLATION, VIOLATION). Not a good experience at all, but the teachers were nice.
