Dow Academy was a school in Franconia, New Hampshire, United States. Founded in 1884, it served as the town's high school until 1958, after which its building, a Georgian Revival wood-frame building built in 1903, became a centerpiece of the Franconia College campus. The building, along with a nearby carriage house, were converted into sixteen condominium residences in 1983; it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
