Lake Forest Academy Selects ISA
Lake Forest Academy has selected ISA to complete marketing, advancement, and communication planning. Lake Foreste Academy is an independent, coed, boarding and day school located north of Chicago in Lake Forest, Illinois. Lake Forest was established in 1857 as the boys’ preparatory department of Lind University (later renamed Lake Forest University). The girls’ preparatory department was added in 1869; it was called the “Young Ladies’ Seminary at Ferry Hall” until 1887 when it became known simply as Ferry Hall. In 1925, both LFA and Ferry Hall legally separated from Lake Forest College, becoming independent secondary educational institutions. In 1974, LFA and Ferry Hall merged into one coeducational independent school called Lake Forest Academy- Ferry Hall. In 1988, the school dropped the name “Ferry Hall” and continued as Lake Forest Academy.
