Marburn Academy is a non-profit independent day school for students in grades 2–12 school in New Albany, Ohio. The school was created in 1981, with the goal of providing a nurturing educational environment for above average students who had struggled with traditional schooling. Education at the school geared towards children struggling with ADHD, dyslexia and/or executive function issues.[5] The school prides itself on being one of 13 accredited Orton-Gillingham schools in the United States, and its 100% acceptance rate of its high school students to colleges.[6]

In January 2017, Marburn Academy moved from Forest Park East, Columbus, to a new location at 9555 Johnstown Road, New Albany, Ohio 43054.
