Scholars' Academy is a uniformed preparatory school consisting of a middle school (grades 6–8) and a high school (grades 9–12) for gifted and talented children located in Rockaway Park, in the New York City borough of Queens.

It draws 51% of its students from the Rockaway Peninsula and is known for its diversity.
