Admiral Farragut Academy

What a way to kick off the summer! ☀️⚓

Our first week of Anchors Away Summer Camp was an absolute blast, filled with laughter, adventure, new friendships, and unforgettable memories. From exciting activities to hands-on learning and plenty of fun in the sun and water, our campers made the most of every moment!

We can’t wait to see what the rest of the summer has in store. Here’s to more adventures ahead! 🌊💙

📚☀️ Summer is the perfect time to turn the page on a new adventure! Here is your Lower School Summer Reading list.

We encourage all of our Lower School students to keep their minds active and imaginations growing through our Summer Reading Program. From exciting stories to unforgettable characters, summer reading helps strengthen literacy skills while fostering a lifelong love of learning.

Each student has a required grade-level book and the opportunity to explore additional titles from the SSYRA reading list. We hope families will make reading a special part of the summer by sharing stories, discussing favorite books, and setting aside time to read together.

We can’t wait to hear about all the amazing books and adventures our students discover when they return this fall!

Happy Reading, BlueJackets! 💙⚓📖

From Farragut to the U.S. Navy, and now Harvard. 🎓⚓️

When Blake L***y ’08 crossed the stage at Admiral Farragut Academy in 2008, his family proudly celebrated the beginning of an incredible journey. Four years later, they stood beside him again as he graduated from the United States Naval Academy and accepted his commission as a Navy Ensign.

Now, they have gathered once more, this time at Harvard University, to celebrate Blake earning his MBA.

Stories like Blake’s remind us that a Farragut education is more than a diploma. It is a foundation for leadership, service, achievement, and lifelong success.

Congratulations, Blake, on this remarkable accomplishment. Your journey continues to inspire the next generation of Farragut students.

Congratulations to Senior Cadet Alex Stent on receiving the prestigious Lance Corporal Andrew J. Aviles Scholarship through the Florida Boys State Program and the American Legion. 🇺🇸

Awarded during the summer before his senior year, this incredible honor provides full tuition to Florida State University and recognizes Alex’s leadership, character, and dedication to service.

We are proud to celebrate this outstanding achievement and look forward to all that lies ahead for Alex. ⚓️🎓
