Getting Here
Academy students live in Western Massachusetts and Southern Vermont, and all of them commute to campus every day. Most students arrive on one of several buses that serve as “trunk lines” into their home communities: bus service is available from the Amherst/Northampton area, Greenfield, Shelburne Falls, and some hill towns of western Franklin County.
The Academy views buses as the ecologically responsible way for our students to get to campus, and as an additional opportunity to wind down with friends and practice good citizenship. We work hard to keep bus pass prices as low as possible.
The Academy's five bus routes serve students in and around the following communities:
Colrain
Northampton - Williamsburg - Ashfield - Buckland
Amherst - South Deerfield - Conway
Cummington - Plainfield - Charlemont
Greenfield - Shelburne Falls (FRTA) - a public bus route with additional connections to other towns. Many southeastern Vermont students take this route as well.
