Voyager Academy Middle School News, Dec. 4, 2020

Hello Middle School Parents, 

Wow, what a fast and busy week!  I first want to send a big Thank You to Stephanie Brennan.  Mrs Brennan was our special guest this morning during the 8th Grade Career Talks session.  Mrs. Brennan talked about her job and how one of her teachers was instrumental in encouraging her to be a lawyer.  Learning about the different types of lawyers was very interesting. Mrs. Brennan shared how important it is to select a career that you are passionate about and that you will enjoy!  Thank you, Mrs. Brennan.
