The Bostick Female Academy, also known as Triune School, is a property in College Grove, Tennessee that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
It is in Triune, a community that at one time had five private schools, including a Porter Female Academy that was destroyed in 1863 in the American Civil War. On the board of the Porter Female Academy was a Dr. Jonathan Bostick, who later bequeathed funds for the Bostick Female Academy. The school was built in 1892.
The school building includes Late Victorian architecture. The listing was for an area of 2 acres (0.81 ha) with just one contributing building. The building operated as a private school until about 1900, then as a public school until 1957, and since has been used as a private home.
