This week was full of finalizing tasks and getting prepared for the first day of our summer school program. Creating directional signage, sorting through summer school t-shirt sizes, and talking with teachers and tutors, among other responsibilities comprised my week 3. 

This past week I also helped generate ideas for our parent information session that we will host in July. We are going to be changing things up so that it is more relaxed and fun to attend for busy parents/guardians. 

On a more personal note, I had the pleasure of meeting the summer school teachers and tutors. They have been completing Orton-Gillingham (OG) training for the past couple of weeks in order to be certified. The OG teaching approach is used to teach students who learn differently in an effective and positive way. 

One more project that I continually work on is digitizing printed photos that date back to 1981 when Marburn Academy was founded. It has been so cool to see how Marburn Academy grew from a living room operation created by loving parents to now being a wonderful school with two locations that reach students who learn differently.
