The Fayetteville Academy was established in 1970 as a coeducational secular private school in Cumberland County.

History

The Fayetteville Academy opened in September 1970 under the leadership of the first headmaster, Joseph Lassiter, with approximately 100 students in grades 1-10. During the first year the entire school was housed in what is today the Lower School. The following year the gym was built and named in honor of Oscar L. Norris, the Chairman of the original Board of Directors.

In 1972, the Upper School addition was completed to accommodate the first graduating class. In the spring of 1973, the former Lafayette School merged with the Academy.

During the following school year, two campuses were maintained while the Middle School building was being completed. That same year the gymnasium building was enlarged to include a lunchroom and more physical education facilities.

Between 1973 and 1975, a baseball field and a soccer field were constructed. In 1979, the Barbour Tennis Courts were built. In 1981, the administration and media center buildings were completed and in the fall of 1993, the Jones Science and Math Center was added.

The new gymnasium, along with the Jordan Soccer Field and Physical Fitness Center, was completed in 1997. In 2001, the Alumni Center for Fine Arts opened and provided facilities for the art, choral music and band studios. Construction of the Lawing Baseball Complex was also completed in 2001. The Wood Technology and Learning Center was opened in the fall of 2002, and in 2004, the Kishbaugh Center for Writing and Creative Learning was created as a legacy to Ryan Patrick Kishbaugh.

Current status

Enrollment for the 2016-17 school year is approximately 385 students, with 47 staff and faculty members. The Head of School is Ray Quesnel.
