Principal's reflections on the Class of 2022:

The Class of 2022 had a strong academic profile as evidenced by their accomplishments in the classroom as well as their college placements. These students relished the opportunities to learn that were facilitated by our dedicated teachers. They are all graduating from the Elgin Academy prepared to be successful scholastically and socially in college and beyond.
