Wentworth Military Academy and College
Wentworth Military Academy is a private, co-educational, full board military high school and college with a 130 year history of success. Founded in 1880, we are the oldest military academy west of the Mississippi River. The unique learning environment of our military structure encourages our students to develop the life principles of self-discipline, self-respect, respect for others, integrity, and personal responsibility both inside and outside of the classroom. In our full board environment, each student is given daily instruction and opportunity to attain these important life skills. Through both our superior academics and teaching principles, our students are able to achieve the pride and confidence that sets them apart as Wentworth cadets.

Military School for Boys and Girls
The military structure allows our cadets to learn and practice the basics of leadership each and every day, developing important skills they carry with them the rest of their lives. All Wentworth cadets participate in athletics. A clear set of rules means our cadets are free to focus on achievement without the distractions so common in most schools today. Wentworth produces mature young men and women who are self-motivated, well-educated, highly principled, self-confident, respectful of others, and loyal to family, friends, and country.
College for Civilian and Cadet Students
Wentworth's College offers a superb learning experience to both the cadets and civilian students who share its campus. Throughout the week, cadets and students are thoroughly integrated in their academic activities. These activities range from captivating physiology labs to real life criminal justice studies. They often participate together in sports, Phi Theta Kappa honor society events, and annual events like the spring formal and talent show.
The experienced faculty and staff form a supportive and caring team focused on student success. Cadets participate in demanding military training and all students are encouraged to grow and stretch to achieve their personal and academic goals. Wentworth provides the wholesome environment that promotes self discipline, moral character, academic excellence, close friendships, and fun.
