About Barnstable

For more than 30 years, Barnstable Academy has been home to students who have differing styles of learning. Here, students have every opportunity to succeed, academically and socially, in a college prep environment.

Education doesn't work when it is one-size-fits-all. Not every student learns in the same manner. By offering a smaller setting, taking a nurturing approach and having teachers focused on maximizing each student's individual talents, we have found that all students are capable of reaching their own true potential.


We have countless stories of students who arrived at our school uncertain about the future of their education, and have since gone on to become successful college students, college graduates, and professionals in their chosen fields. For us, these success stories are the truest reflection of a Barnstable education.

Yours in Education,
Robert S. Wolk, School Director and  Lizanne M. Coyne, Head of School
