Go Big Blue!

Welcome to Andover - we are excited to meet you! At Phillips Academy, we think of our work as teachers broadly. In its 1778 constitution, Phillips Academy committed to teaching “youth from every quarter” and to aspire equally to knowledge and goodness and to non sibi, or to serve others. At this vibrant boarding school, faculty contribute to student learning in many ways, including in the classroom, in the dorm, and in co-curricular, athletic, or artistic endeavors. We’d love to hear more about your interest in joining and contributing to the rich opportunities this community offers.

Please highlight any significant experiences or interests that would contribute to the holistic education of our students within your application.

“Wow. What a crazy ride. Whoever found Mr. English needs a raise because he has been fantastic. Eye opening, completely authentic, and unorthodox. I am so lucky to have been in his class.” —Student Feedback

Phillips Academy’s 500-acre campus is set just 20 miles from Boston in the town of Andover, Massachusetts. While our campus footprint might feel expansive, Andover’s intimacy emanates from our vibrant community, our residential clusters, and the interconnectedness of everyday life.
