Milford Academy (formerly Yale Preparatory School) is an all-boys post-secondary school originally located at 104 Gulf St Milford Connecticut. The school endured many health violations and the state shut it down. After the school was shut down by the state it relocated to New Berlin, New York, United States. Founded in 1916 as a college-preparatory school, it focuses on athletes with the potential to play collegiate sports but who are not yet academically ready. The school places photographs and memorabilia of alumni drafted or signed by a professional sports team in a hall of fame.
