History
Woodward Academy was founded in 1900 as Georgia Military Academy. Originally an all male school, in 1964 the school became co-educational and was renamed Woodward Academy in 1966. The boarding program was discontinued in 1993. The all-grade physical education course was also halted after the injury of a few kindergarteners. Woodward draws its students from twenty-three metro Atlanta counties, and has two campuses - the Main Campus in College Park (PK-12) and Woodward North in Johns Creek (PK-6).

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of the Victorian Age will never be written: we know too much about it.”
—Lytton Strachey (1880–1932)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“All history and art are against us, but we still expect happiness in love.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
