Lowndes Academy

School Mission/Vision

The mission of Lowndes Academy is to provide both educational and social opportunities designed to help students become well-rounded, productive members of society.  Our desire is to strengthen the students’ sense of Patriotism, develop their awareness of social issues, and continue their emotional and moral growth based on Christian beliefs. We seek to prepare students, who come from diverse backgrounds and who have varying abilities, to meet the academic demands of college and/or to meet the challenges of the world of work in an environment that is nurturing and safe.  

School Profile

Lowndes Academy opened in August 1966 with an enrollment of 210 students and a faculty of eight teachers. We are acutely aware of the significance of the role the community plays in the success of any school. Therefore, we seek to encourage a strong community-school interaction. 

Lowndesboro is a rural community with a population of 140 people, 58 households, and 40 families, according to the 2000 census.  The most unique feature of Lowndesboro is its history. Lowndesboro is a very old community rich in history.

The students of Lowndes Academy not from Lowndesboro come from the surrounding counties such as Dallas, Wilcox, Montgomery, Autauga, and Butler. The staff is from the community and surrounding counties.
