ABOUT MARBURN ACADEMY Marburn Academy is an independent day school devoted to serving the educational needs of bright students who learn differently due to dyslexia, executive function difficulties, and attention challenges.
Marburn is accredited by the Independent School Association of the Central States (ISACS) and is one of only 18 schools in the nation to have its language instruction program accredited by the Orton-Gillingham Academy (OGA).
At MarburnAcademy, we celebrate students who learn
differently, empowering them to awaken their potential, to achieve
success in school and life, and to drive positive change in our
communities.
At Marburn, we understand the distinct academic, social, and
emotional needs of our students and celebrate their individual
learning styles. Our program focuses on meeting students where they
are, understanding their strengths and challenges, and providing a
safe, positive learning environment where they can experience
success. Our primary goals are to:
grow specific core academic skills based on student
deficits;
work with students to support and grow essential executive
function skills;
provide personalized attention for each student; and
provide opportunities for developing confidence, self-advocacy,
and self-awareness.
When students` skill deficits approach grade level, they move
forward into building their capacity to employ new skills
independently, tackle more demanding tasks, and work in larger
groups with less individual attention and support.The
ultimate goal is always to encourage and support students with
learning differences as they acquire the skills, self-knowledge,
and strength of character they need to be successful.
Marburn constantly refines its teaching methods to
incorporateevidence-based instructional practices that are
designed for our population of students. Connections with
researchers who provide consultations on current studies and
implementation strategies help drive Marburn's curriculum. The goal
of the curriculum is to enable students who learn differently 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,
Marburn's comprehensive mathematics curriculum experientially
teaches concepts and problem-solving skills.
