Greenleaf Friends Academy

Transforming lives since 1908

Since 1908

Since 1908, Greenleaf Friends Academy (a Christian School) has been partnering with families to provide a Christ-centered education for their children. A lot has happened in the 115 years since GFA’s founding, but our signature joyfully classical approach to culture and education has never been stronger.  Greenleaf Friends Academy remains committed to providing an education to its students that is academically excellent and predicated on a singular pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty.

Christian schooling is an investment

Christian schooling is an investment in your young person’s future. At Greenleaf Friends Academy (GFA), we not only prepare students for college, but for a life that will bring glory to God. Our students learn that with God’s power and grace — whether they experience success and joy or encounter adversity and disappointment — they can confidently face every situation.

Founded in 1908 by the same group of Friends (Quakers) who founded the community of Greenleaf, Idaho, Greenleaf Friends Academy is known throughout the Northwest for its academic excellence, outstanding music and athletic programs, and uncompromising Christian values.

Located in the tranquil Treasure Valley, the Academy has grown over the past century from a one-room schoolhouse into a wonderful facility consisting of classrooms, gymnasium, elementary building, preschool, cafeteria, athletic fields and playgrounds to accommodate the needs of our students. Our student body represents over 40 different churches from throughout the Treasure Valley and as far away as southeastern Oregon.

Upcoming Events

We have an amazing Fall Gala event planned for Saturday, November 2, at the Northwest Nazarene University Brandt Center. This is a great time to participate in the start of the new classroom wing building fund campaign. 

Exciting events are planned throughout the evening:

  • Featured speaker will be Marty Tadman, former BSU Defensive Back.  Marty was named MVP for the 2007 Fiesta Bowl win over Oklahoma.  A VIP Meet and Greet with Marty including VIP seating is available for purchase.  The Meet and Greet event doors open at 5:15 pm with dinner and evening program to begin at 6:00 pm.  Get all of the details here »
