Welcome from the Headmaster
Timothy Johnston
It is my pleasure, on behalf of the Beaufort Academy community, to welcome you to the BA website. If you are considering moving to the beautiful and culture-rich Lowcountry, or if you are already lucky enough to live in this wonderful community, I hope that Beaufort Academy will become the educational home for your entire family.
At Beaufort Academy, we believe deeply in the tripod philosophy of education. Strong academics from pre-kindergarten through high school are balanced with excellent offerings in athletics and the arts. This balance provides our students with a broad foundation based on proven curriculum and learning to cooperate with others toward common goals. The BA Experience makes possible the discovery of interests and talents which are only revealed through persevering effort, the guidance of passionate teachers, and having the courage to do one’s best in all endeavors and in the face of all challenges.
Beaufort Academy students learn and grow in a community which values, honors and expects the exhibition of good character. Good values must be acted upon in order to become virtues. All members of the BA community are expected to be honest, trustworthy, compassionate, kind and respectful to all. Beaufort Academy students become citizens who value truth, justice, goodness and interdependence.
If you are interested in getting to know Beaufort Academy, please feel free to give us a call or drop us a line. Our Director of Admissions, Bethany Biaett, and I would both welcome a chance to host your visit to campus, or to discuss our school, mission and philosophy at your convenience.
Warmest best wishes,
Timothy D. Johnston
Headmaster
