Elgin Academy is Closed
State of the School
It is with a heavy heart that we announce that after 185 years Elgin Academy closed. Despite the tremendous efforts of the Board, school leadership and other dedicated community members to find a path forward, it was determined that our model of an independent Preschool through 12th grade school is no longer sustainable in Elgin.
