Training Process

Southern Preparatory Academy will present four distinct chances for individuals to attain open-water SCUBA certification within the academic year. These opportunities are evenly distributed, with one session available every nine weeks throughout the school calendar. Each session is limited to a maximum of 12 cadets. The training regimen encompasses four days of specialized instruction, covering both classroom education and practical water skills. This training is conducted at the Southern Skin Divers Supply facilities.

The certification validation weekend involves a two-day schedule of dives set against the backdrop of Morrison Springs or Vortex Springs in the Florida panhandle. Additionally, cadets will experience either shore dives at St. Andrews Jetties, Florida, or a boat dive off the coast of Florida.

Upon obtaining open-water certification, divers can participate in various dive trips during the Fall and Spring seasons. These expeditions typically include drift diving and snorkeling with manatees in the Rainbow River and Crystal River, Florida, and partaking in inshore wreck diving excursions departing from Panama City or offshore wreck descends from Orange, Alabama.

Over the year, the Diving Rangers engage in activities such as search and rescue training, recovery training, Lake Martin cleanup initiatives, and various diving prospects throughout the academic term.

The culminating dives of the school year for the Diving Rangers occur in late April during Spring, transpiring off the shores of Orange Beach, Alabama, on a sunken Navy Tug.

Founder of Southern Preparatory Military Academy

The origins of Southern Preparatory Academy trace back to a rich and eventful history. Established in 1898 by Dr. Lyman Ward, a visionary Universalist minister from New York, the Academy emerged to prepare young men and women for life’s multifaceted challenges, whether in manual skills or the realms of literature and art. Dr. Ward embarked on a fundraising campaign of $5,000, rallying support from various churches and communities in eastern Alabama, a pivotal initiative that laid the foundation for the Academy.

Dr. Ward’s educational philosophy was significantly influenced by the ideas of Booker T. Washington, a prominent figure who underscored the crucial role of education in shaping the minds of young individuals, especially those facing socio-economic adversity. After being inspired by a lecture by Booker T. Washington, Dr. Ward decided to relocate southward. His pursuit led him to the Tuskegee Institute, where he immersed himself in innovative methodologies and subsequently adapted and integrated into the Academy’s approach. A distinctive facet of Dr. Ward’s vision was incorporating labor contributions, imparting the principles of hard work and self-reliance to his students.
