Christian Brothers Academy (CBA) is a private, Catholic college preparatory school in suburban Syracuse, New York run by the Brothers of the Christian Schools, founded by St. John Baptist de La Salle. Located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Syracuse, the school has roughly 750 students in grades seven through twelve. It was founded in 1900 by the Christian Brothers, who still run the school, though most of the teachers are laity. In 1960, it moved from its original site on Willow Street in Downtown Syracuse to its current location in suburban Dewitt on Randall Road. CBA was a boys only school until September 1987. CBA opened its doors to girls after Syracuse's all-girls school The Franciscan Academy closed and many of those parents actively lobbied to have CBA accept female students.
CBA has a noted history of athletic achievement at the local and state levels; most recently, the varsity football team won the 2004 New York State Football Championship by defeating New Rochelle High School and Ray Rice. The Brothers achieved their most recent victory at the 2016 Section III Championship, where CBA defeated Cicero-North Syracuse High School. The girls varsity Swimming and Diving team finished the 2009 season ranked number one in New York State and 7th in the nation among independent schools.
