The mission of Franklin Academy is to provide neurodivergent students the opportunity to develop and strengthen academic and social competencies vital to pursuing college goals, professional aspirations, and fulfilling lives. Our school motto is "Belong, Grow, Succeed."
 
The New England Association of Schools and Colleges granted Franklin Academy accredited status in 2007 and renewed this accreditation in 2017. Accreditation means that our school meets the standards of excellence by which the "educational community assures the high quality of each member school." NEASC commends Franklin Academy for "creating an academic program and residential community that completely matches its mission." To date, Franklin Academy is one of only a few accredited college preparatory boarding schools in the country to focus exclusively on bright adolescents in grades 8 through 12 and postgraduates, considered disabled students due to a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder or identification with Nonverbal Learning Disability.
