Langholm Academy is a non-denominational, co-educational six-year comprehensive secondary school in Langholm, Scotland.
The school was created in March 1876, with John Howie as head. During the 1880s, the school had a record as one of the best academic schools in Scotland.
Currently, the school has 240 pupils: the current building was opened in 1962.[1] A sports and leisure complex was opened alongside the school in 2002.
The Academy is associated with two primary schools: Langholm and Canonbie.[2]
