A Close-Knit Classroom

About Us

The Academy of the New Church is an accredited, faith-based private, day and boarding high school located in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Our two independent schools–ANC Girls School and ANC Boys School–share a campus and work collaboratively to challenge students academically and provide them with the advantages of both a single gender and coeducational experience. ANC students are encouraged to pursue artistic and athletic passions and discover new ones in our supportive, small school community.

Girls School

The Girls School creates an intellectually stimulating and emotionally enriching environment where girls develop confidence, critical thinking, leadership, creativity and responsibility.

Boys School

The Boys School challenges every student to behave with integrity, develop their conscience, grow academically, and become courageous and kind leaders at ANC and in life.
