Christian Brothers Academy (also known as CBA or "The Academy") is a private, all-boys preparatory Catholic high school in the Lincroft section of Middletown Township in New Jersey. The school is run by the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools.
The school was originally a farm owned by the prominent Whitney family of New York City, and home to the Greentree Stable. The land was eventually given to the Christian Brothers for the purpose of teaching. The school opened in September 1959 and was blessed by the Bishop of Trenton on October 11, 1959. Christian Brothers Academy operates independently from the Diocese of Trenton and is governed by a board of trustees.
As of the 2021–22 school year, the school had an enrollment of 876 students and 64.3 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.6:1. The school's student body was 79.5% (696) White, 10.6% (93) Hispanic, 6.8% (60) two or more races, 2.6% (23) Asian and 0.5% (4) Black.
The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools since 1967.
