FA’s Middle School program has been carefully constructed to promote independence, responsibility, respect, trust, inclusivity, and accountability. Students are supported through an advisory program which gives them a sense of belonging and supports them both in their learning and through the huge human growth and development changes they experience as young adolescents.

Sixth, seventh, and eighth graders learn to take charge of their education at FA by exploring the world and building a spectrum of skills in everything from labs to literature.
At Fredericksburg Academy, Middle School students don't just study—they experience. From exploring Chesapeake Bay ecosystems to bringing Shakespeare to life alongside Upper School mentors, our students constantly connect classroom concepts to the real world. By integrating arts and athletics into our core curriculum, we challenge students to push their boundaries and build a rigorous foundation for their future academic success.
Signature Experiences

Academics
Middle School academics are intentionally designed to support both intellectual growth and the profound personal development that defines early adolescence. Our Middle School curriculum balances academic challenge with structured support, helping students grow in independence, responsibility, and confidence.
Athletics
Every student gets to be part of a team at FA, whether they are trying a sport for the first time or have aspirations to play in college.


Visual and Performing Arts
Middle School Falcons channel their creativity and communicate ideas, emotions, and experiences which words cannot through engagement with the arts.
