Martha Berry opened the doors of the Boys Industrial School in January 1902, on 83 acres on what is today part of the Berry College campus. In 1908 the school's charter was amended with the legal name changed to The Berry School. In 1916 a school for older boys was started at the foot of Lavendar Mountain and in 1917 the charter was again amended, with the legal name changed to The Berry Schools.
The name of the school was changed to the Mount Berry School for Boys and in 1964 the Mount Berry School for Boys became Berry Academy. Over the next two decades the school became coeducational and a middle school was added. Berry Academy closed at the end of the 1982-83 school year.
Martha Berry School for Girls, the girls' high school opened on Thanksgiving Day 1909 and closed in 1955-56.
