Location

The Academy, a beautiful new brick building with accommodations for four hundred students, is situated in the thriving village of Bainbridge in the picturesque valley of the Susquehanna - thirty-four miles east of Binghamton on the line of the Albany and Susquehanna Railroad.  The village contains about one thousand inhabitants, and is noted for its healthful climate, its magnificent scenery, it moral and religious influences (containing five churches) and its freedom from the evil temptations of larger towns and cities.

 

This institution under its present management will afford great advantages for education, and the attention of parents is solicited before placing their children elsewhere.
