History The school was chartered as the Academy of Richmond County in 1783. It opened in 1785 and offered collegiate-level classes from its earliest days. Graduates were accepted into colleges as sophomores or juniors. Studies were suspended during the Civil War and the building was used as a hospital for wounded soldiers. Operation of the academy was overseen by a board of trustees until 1909, when control was passed to the Augusta Board of Education. The college-level classes continued to be overseen by a committee of the state legislature. As enrollment increased, land for a second building was purchased. In 1925, prior to completion of the new building, the Junior College of Augusta was established. In 1957, the junior college separated from the academy and moved to its present location on Walton Way.
