How did you hear about Falmouth Academy/event? *

"As residents of Martha’s Vineyard, we chose Falmouth Academy for our two sons for a variety of reasons, including the culture of the school. Students feel comfortable being themselves, and it’s ‘cool’ to be smart at FA.

The administrators and teachers are excellent, which is just one more reason why our boys are eager to go to school each day. The academics are strong, and students get a lot of practice in effective communication while sitting around beautiful large wooden tables in many classes.

We cherish so many facets of the school— from course offerings to the top-notch Science Fair to all the great after-school events, including those in which parents participate.”

-Caroline and Reiner Fenske, Parents '18, 20
