Amherst Academy (Amherst, Mass.)

The Amherst Academy Catalog is a source of information about history of the school. The academic year of Amherst Academy was divided into three or four terms depending on the time period, and catalogs from 1827 to 1830 are for a specific term.

Students are listed under their academic departments which, over the years, included a Classical Department, Languages Department, English Department, and School Teacher Department. Later catalogs list students by their gender (male or female) as well as their department of study.
