About

Why Bulloch Academy?

Enriching the leaders of tomorrow, today.

A Bulloch Academy education provides each student with the competence and confidence to succeed in whatever pursuit they may choose, while promoting kindness and conscience. The relationships students form at BA with teachers and other pupils provide them with the lifelong support they need to go out and make the most of their personal strengths in an educational or vocational environment.

 

Alma Mater

In the midst of Georgia Pines there stands a school so rare,

Full of students and of teachers; they all really care.

Bulloch, Bulloch our Academy; we do love you so,

We will never lose our memories anywhere we go.

High values we will carry with us as we seek life’s goals,

Fond emotions linger ever deep within our souls.

Bulloch, Bulloch, our Academy; we do love you so,

We will never lose our memories anywhere we go.

What sets us apart?

Bulloch Academy’s uniqueness comes in its small-school environment, where students often feel more like brothers and sisters than just classmates who pass in the hall. Teachers are watchful parents who care about the education, well-being, and safety of “their” kids.

History of BA

54 years ago, Bulloch Academy was founded because of a mother’s love and concern for her children’s educations. Now, half a century later, we’re continuing that legacy by challenging, teaching, and nurturing tomorrow’s leaders.
