Welcome to Dorchester Academy
Where Excellence is the Starting Point
Announcements
Due to a high number of flu-positive students and staff, we will be closing campus at 3:00 p.m. today, 2/4, for deep cleaning and to help limit further spread of illness. During the remainder of this week, the school will transition to our eLearning platform so that instruction may continue. Thank you for your understanding and support. May everyone have a smooth and speedy recovery. All of today’s games have been cancelled. Stay tuned for athletic announcements.
Due to inclement weather, our State of the School address has been postponed. It will now be held on Sunday, February 8, 2026, at 2:00 pm. We invite you to join us in Shuler Gymnasium for this event! The Board of Trustees, along with our Administration, PTO, Booster, and Alumni Association, will be presenting schoolwide updates and future plans, as related to expansion, school improvements, curriculum development, athletics, and community outreach.
Campus will reopen at 2:00 on Sunday for the State of the School Address
