Dr. Douglas North, class of 1958, Head of School, shows a donated first edition of Moby Dick, by Herman Melville, former student, at the Albany Academies’ 15-month Bicentennial celebration on Monday, March 4, 2013.
The Albany Academies kicked off their bicentennial celebration Monday on the school's Charter Day. This year marks the 200th anniversary for the Albany Academy, and 2014 marks the same milestone for the Albany Academy for Girls. Special events are planned throughout the year, and the schools plan to produce a documentary.
