Who We Are

Old Sturbridge Academy (OSA) is a charter public school and part of the Old Sturbridge Inc. family of organizations, which includes Old Sturbridge Village - one of the most visited living history museums in the country. As an EL (Expeditionary Learning) Education school, we believe in hands-on learning that challenges students to grow in three dimensions: mastery of knowledge and skills, character, and high-quality work. Our curriculum is anchored in Learning Expeditions that connect rigorous academics to real-world experiences and our community’s extraordinary resources. Every student - including those who need the most support - deserves full access to that learning, and our BCBA plays a critical role in making that possible.
