OUR MISSION >

Central Academy was founded in North Palatka in 1892. During these times, "Separate but equal," was the law of the United States (Plessy vs. Ferguson 1896). In 1925, under Professor Clarence Walker, Central Academy became the first accredited school of any kind in Florida.  

​

On November 12, 1998, the Historic Central Academy Board was created and the school was registered as a National Historic Site. The mission of The Historic Central Academy Board is to restore the legacy and rebuild Central Academy for future generations.
