From the Voyager Academy Board, Oct. 27, 2019
Hi Voyager families,
The board would like to provide you with an update about our managing director search. After a detailed process in which a subcommittee of the board met with and interviewed four search firms, we hired a search firm, CLCB, out of Charlotte, to assist us. You can learn more about the firm at https://clcbsearch.com/. This is the same firm that helped us recruit Jennifer Lucas several years ago, and we believe it is the right firm to help us find our next amazing managing director.

Dear VAMS Families,
Bright Ideas is a grant sponsored by Piedmont Electric Membership Corporation and awarded to schools. Voyager Middle School’s 6th graders have received one of the Bright Ideas grant, thanks to Mr. Price and Mrs. Miller! The money from the grant will be used to build a greenhouse in their community garden. Be on the lookout as the work will begin very soon! Needless to say, that all are very excited!
