  • Chamberlain-Hunt Academy, founded in 1879, is a private Christian military boarding school in Port Gibson, Mississippi, USA, for boys in grades 7 through 12 (ages approximately 13 to 18 inclusive). The school describes its approach as to "provide an environment for boys that interrupts their usual way of acting: haircuts and uniforms change their appearance, schedules change their routines, and accountability changes their behavior. The cadre and the curriculum change what the cadets would otherwise put into their brains. " Its current slogan is "Knowledge and Wisdom in Submission to God". It has advertised in the past under the slogan "We Love Boys; We Build Men". In 1970 the school opened its doors to day students, including a small number of girls, but the boarding program is open to boys only. (Girls were admitted as boarders for a short period, but this experiment was abandoned in 2002. ) All the boarding students have always been called "cadets". Currently, Chamberlain-Hunt has about 100 cadets and 25 classroom teachers. The Principal since 2008 is LTC Quentin Johnson and the Commandant is LTC Todd Patterson. Cadets come to Chamberlain-Hunt from all over the United States, from across the spectrum of social and economic backgrounds, for its challenging academic program and its, by modern US standards, exceptionally rigorous military discipline. The school believes that regular physical activity develops good physical wellbeing, strength and confidence, and that military structure teaches and encourages self-discipline and responsibility. Cadets also benefit from a variety of off-campus activities, as well as movies, games and activities on-campus. The campus includes a 70-acre (280,000 m) wilderness camp with rifle range, two confidence courses, paintball and 5-acre (20,000 m) lake. The immediate area, with its buildings in brick Georgian Revival style, is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Chamberlain-Hunt is a member of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Mississippi Association of Independent Schools (MAIS), the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), the Association of Military Colleges and Schools of the United States (AMCSUS), and the Association of Classical Christian Schools.
