Why CCA?

At Cape Cod Academy, values really matter.

On the playing field; at the front of the classroom; from the music stage; in the halls: friendliness, trust, and genuine respect abound here. We encourage our students to know themselves and to be curious about others, and we consistently turn out graduating seniors who impress admissions committees with both their college readiness and their compassion.

Connected Curriculum

Every grade offers a distinct array of academic topics and requirements, but the curricular priorities we hold as a school are consistent across grade levels. As an Upper School student your child practices core skills and delves into fundamental academic subjects first introduced in the Lower School, with an end goal of mastery.

Confidence-building Athletics

Cape Cod Academy's students have year-round opportunities for junior varsity and varsity involvement in baseball, lacrosse, basketball, cross-country, golf, hockey, sailing, soccer, swimming, diving and tennis. Athletic facilities include a NCAA-size basketball court, indoor cross training and weight training space, eight outdoor tennis courts, athletic fields, and cross-country trails on our 46-acre campus.

Independent Scholarship

We value autonomy. You can count on us to notice your child's individual talents and curiosities, to meet him where he is in our teaching, and to offer him multiple opportunities for self-directed study, service, and leadership.

Imagination-stretching Arts

We extend a full K through 12 art and music curriculum so our students can stretch their creativity all the way through their time here. Additionally, Upper School students interested in visual arts can choose from drawing, sculpture, photography, film club, painting, ceramics, and graphic arts electives; performing artists have access to the chorale, drama club, theater arts class, the spring musical, jazz band, and private instrumental instruction.
Cape Cod Academy is one of the only independent, co-educational, college preparatory schools serving students from kindergarten to grade 12 on Cape Cod.
