Founders Day & Alumni Homecoming
Friday, September 6th
5:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Marburn Academy Piazza
Marburn's inaugural Founders Day event was held in 2021 to celebrate our 40th year of providing excellence in education for students who learn differently. We have welcomed more than 1000 attendees over the years, including families, faculty, staff, alumni, and Board Members! Join us for the fourth annual Founders Day and Alumni Homecoming with an evening of fun, food, festivities, and family connectivity celebrating our founders, school, and community.
The event features inflatables, games, face painting, crafts, food trucks, and more. This is the biggest event of the school year, so be sure to share this memorable and fun evening with us.
*Founders Day is at no cost to families except food and beverage, which will be self-pay.
