Meet Our Team
The Durham Academy students, alumni and faculty who make up the DA Summer team are the secret to making Summer the most happy, moral and productive one yet. At Durham Academy Summer, everyone has a place and is welcome, included and celebrated for being their unique self.
We are so grateful to the DA Summer team, who worked with such care and teamwork to facilitate in-person instruction and interaction in 2020, 2021 and 2022 — and we had no reported COVID-19 transmission (learn about our DA Summer Health and Safety protocols on our FAQs page). With our returning team members, we are excited to use the skills honed through that experience to make Summer as fun and safe as possible.
Please reach out with any questions!
