On 40 waterfront acres in St. Petersburg, Admiral Farragut Academy is more than a private K–12 prep school. It’s a community where students from around the world discover who they are—and who they’re called to become.
Since 1933, we’ve formed students to think critically, live courageously, and lead with integrity. With small classes, exceptional programs, and a dynamic, supportive culture, Farragut prepares young people to go far—and to lead with heart and purpose.
The Farragut Pillars
Our foundation is built on four guiding pillars that shape every student’s journey:
Learn Boldly
Big dreams start early and grow at Farragut, where learning is a joyful, curious, hands-on adventure that encourages students to think outside the box and beyond the classroom. Our innovative educators work across grade levels to deliver a unique curriculum that inspires students to wonder, explore, and grow in a supportive, multicultural community.
Grow Deeply
We don’t just teach values at Farragut. We show students how to live them. Our caring teachers guide students to cultivate inner strength and explore new interests at every age, nurturing them to develop compassion, wisdom, and purpose in a vibrant international community that feels like family.
Lead Nobly
Rooted in a proud heritage of leadership and honor since 1933, Farragut is a powerhouse of opportunities. We rise to the challenge of nurturing strong, ethical, compassionate leaders, empowering graduates to lead lives of impact.
Live Purposefully
Success is never accidental. At Farragut, we encourage students to stay focused and develop a clear sense of direction in their lives. By setting meaningful goals and working towards them at every age, our students develop motivation, resilience, and a deeper engagement with learning, shaping them to become thoughtful, confident people prepared to build a better world.
At Admiral Farragut Academy, we welcome international students from around the globe into a diverse and supportive community—where leadership, academic excellence, and lifelong friendships thrive beyond borders.
