Bethel Academy

Bethel Academy was the first Methodist school established in the United States west of the Appalachian Mountains. Established by Francis Asbury in 1790,〔 the school operated in present-day Jessamine County, Kentucky until 1805.
==Establishment==
In 1789, Methodists in Kentucky (then the western part of the state of Virginia) appealed to Bishop Asbury for assistance in establishing a school.〔Connelley, William Elsey, and Ellis Merton Coulter. (''History of Kentucky'' ), Vol. I. Chicago and New York: American Historical Society, 1922, 278.〕 Asbury promised aid conditional upon his memorialists' ability to secure at least of land. Accordingly, he embarked for Kentucky in the spring of 1790, reaching Lexington on the 12th of May.〔Young, Bennett Henderson. (''A History of Jessamine County, Kentucky, From Its Earliest Settlement to 1898 )'', Courier-Journal Job Printing, 1898.〕 After meeting with local Methodists and establishing the Kentucky Conference,〔 Asbury departed for Jessamine County.
There he met with Thomas Lewis, who donated sufficient land to found the school. With the assistance of Francis Poythress and John Metcalf, Asbury completed arrangements for the school. Founded in 1790 under the name of Bethel Academy,〔〔 it was the first Methodist school in the United States west of the Appalachians,〔 and the second in the nation.〔
