Morrison Academy (Chinese: 馬禮遜學校; Wade–Giles: Ma-li-hsün Hsüeh-hsiao; Hanyu Pinyin: Mălĭxùn Xuéxiào; literally: Morrison School) is an international Christian school in Taiwan with campuses in Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung. It was established in 1952 to educate students in a distinctively Christian environment with a quality American education. Instruction is in English and is college preparatory in focus. Morrison Academy was founded in Taichung, where one of the campuses is located, but additional campuses are now located in Taipei (Morrison Academy Taipei) and Kaohsiung (Morrison Academy Kaohsiung). Satellite campuses have also existed island-wide throughout the years.
Established in 1952 to serve the needs of missionary kids, Morrison Academy has attracted a large number of business children. The Taichung campus is currently the largest international school in Taichung and the largest Christian school in the country of Taiwan. The school is recognized by Taiwan as an international school and is restricted from accepting Taiwanese who do not possess a foreign passport.
Graduates from Morrison Academy often attend North American colleges and universities. A wide range of countries is represented in the faculty and the student body. However, the teachers and the students primarily come from the United States and Canada.
Morrison Academy Taichung is located in the Beitun District of Taichung.
Morrison Academy has established boarding homes on the Taichung campus which house 4-12 boys and 4-12 girls in separate wings of three facilities. The students may range in age from students who are in the 7th through the 12th grades. A married couple resides in each unit to serve as boarding home parents.
