History

Camden Military Academy was founded as Camden Academy in 1950. Colonel James F. Risher, the president of Carlisle Military School, purchased the facility in 1958, and the name was changed to Camden Military Academy. His son Lanning P. Risher was the school's first headmaster and served in the position for 37 years. In 1974, Lanning Risher led Camden Military Academy through a reorganization as a non-profit, tax-exempt institution.
