Staunton Military Academy was a private all-male military school located in Staunton, Virginia. Founded in 1884, the academy closed in 1976.[1] The school was highly regarded for its academic and military programs, and many notable American political and military leaders are graduates, including Sen. Barry Goldwater, the 1964 Republican presidential candidate, and his son, Rep. Barry Goldwater Jr., 1960's folk singer Phil Ochs, and John Dean, a White House Counsel who was a central figure in the Watergate scandal of the early 1970s.
A museum dedicated to the school's history is located on its former campus, now part of Mary Baldwin University.[1] Throughout its history, the academy was referred to by students, faculty, and Staunton residents simply by its initials, SMA.
