Academy
Plato founded one
The Academy was the school founded by Plato in ancient Athens, named for the grove of Akademos where it was located.
When capitalized without further specification, Academy often refers to this philosophical tradition or, in context, to a particular institution like the U.S.
Military Academy or the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences: The Academy announced this year's nominees. (Lowercase academy is any school or learned society.)
