History

Founded in 1969,[6] Frederica has a long history of educating students from the Golden Isles of Georgia. Originally, the school was located in the old Brunswick Hospital on the mainland while construction of today's campus was taking place on St. Simons Island. The original buildings still hold the lower and middle schools. In 2004, construction finished on the state-of-the-art new upper school building, Lovick P. Corn Hall.

The school offers a number of Advanced Placement courses, including Biology, Calculus, English Literature, Latin, Economics, Physics, and Spanish.

Facilities

Frederica Academy has a large campus that features one lower school building, two middle school buildings, a separate fifth grade hall, one high school building, a fully equipped gymnasium, cafeteria, drama theater, basketball court, soccer field, baseball field, lower school media center, library, administration building, a wet and dry science laboratory, and a full art studio. Currently, there are no tennis courts even though the girls' team has won the state championship twice.{{cn|date=July 2018}}

Honor code

The Frederica Academy Honor Code reads:

"On my honor, I have neither given nor received help of any kind on this work."

Extended version:

"I realize that, as a student of Frederica Academy under the Honor System, my honor shall be respected. I acknowledge that it is my obligation to be truthful, fair, and honest in all my actions. It shall, therefore, be my aim to achieve a high standard of character worthy of the respect I shall receive. To be honorable, not only in the classroom, but also in all relations with my fellow students and teachers, shall be my constant effort.May God keep me steadfast in purpose."[7]

Students must abide by the Honor Code. If a violation is presented, the situation will be dealt with by the Honor Council (A group of peers and teachers who assist in deciding the outcome of the predicament)

Alma Mater

On an isle in southeast Georgia

There's a school we love;

Set near seas and pearly beaches,

Moss draped oaks above.

Frederica, how we love thee,

Our dear high school home;

And our memories we'll cherish,

As from thee we roam.
