Barre Academy was a school in Barre, Vermont in operation from 1852 to 1885. The institution was incorporated by the Vermont Legislature in 1849. [1] The school building was constructed in 1852, [1] and the school “opened on September 1, 1852 for the fall term”. [2] It was “originally conceived as being supported by three religious denominations: Congregational , Methodist , and Universalist “, [2] with the original board of trustees being “carefully determined so as to be equally representative of these denominations”. [3] However, the bulk of the money was contributed by Congregationalists, and eventually they achieved control of the school, though it was nonsectarian in actual practice”.
