Marburn Academy

At Marburn Academy, we celebrate students who learn differently, empowering them to awaken their potential, to achieve success in school and life, and to effect positive change in our communities. We have a rich history of helping students overcome their academic challenges while developing a strong sense of self-confidence. Remediating skill deficits, building self-awareness and self-advocacy, and developing thinking skills are the main objectives when addressing new students' needs.

Marburn constantly refines its teaching methods to incorporate the latest findings from the fields of education, cognitive science, and brain research as they apply to the unique learning needs of our students. The goal of the curriculum is to enable students with dyslexia or ADHD to realize and fulfill their academic, social, and emotional potential.

Teachers are extensively trained in the multisensory, diagnostic, and prescriptive Orton-Gillingham approach that is widely recognized as the preferred method for teaching reading and writing to children with language learning differences. In addition, our comprehensive mathematics curriculum experientially teaches concepts and problem-solving skills.

Marburn Academy is designed specifically to meet the needs of students who:

• Are of average to superior intelligence
• Struggle with the complexities of Dyslexia, ADHD, Executive Function issues, or other language learning disorders; and
• Are free of primary behavioral or emotional issues.

Marburn Academy provides the finest college preparatory education for students in grades 2-12 who learn differently.
