Marian Anderson Neighborhood Academy

Lots of celebrating and reflecting this time of the year. Today, our grade 8 students exchanged yearbooks at the Schuylkill River Park.

Third grade took a moment to following our outdoor morning meeting to snap a quick group photo.

Huge thanks to Ms. Brown’s parents for providing a celebratory lunch for grade 8 following their yearbook signing in Schuylkill River Park.

A huge thanks to the parents and community members who helped make Wednesday’s Career Day a success!

On Tuesday, eighth grade students celebrated their time at our school with a field trip to Baltimore.

We celebrate the Marian Anderson educators who are part of the Philadelphia Affinity Group Network. The Grays Ferry affinity group is facilitated by Ms. Gordon and includes educators from nearby schools.

The Philadelphia Affinity Group Network, led by Teach Plus Pennsylvania, cultivates authentic, inclusive, intersectional spaces, to support educators of color. These identity-affirming and supportive spaces, rooted in an asset-based understanding of diversity, support educators in navigating and improving their school environments and are connected to a larger network to build alliances and address systemic issues.

Fun Day was a blast! There was mini golf in the gym, games/crafts in the cafe, sports/face painting/bubbles/music in the schoolyard, and a video game truck and relays in Webster St.

Huge thanks to HSA for organizing the event, families for volunteering, and for financially contributing to make the event a success!
