From the Voyager Academy Managing Director, Sept. 3, 2021

 

Dear Voyager Community,

Wow, it is hard to believe that it's September already. The sunshine and cooler weather is a welcome treat for our students and staff to enjoy outdoor lunch and learning. The learning across the buildings is in full swing for students and teachers. Pictured below are the high school zoology students dissecting a squid and a middle school student’s creative sunflower artwork. It was also wonderful to see our first home soccer game on the turf against Franklin Academy.  Our Vikings held strong to end the game in a 0-0 draw.

We have completed another week of learning at Voyager Academy.  I have had the joy of hosting morning meetings with our 1st grade classes this past week and I will be hosting morning meetings with the kindergarten classes this coming week.  Be sure to ask them about the book entitled, “A Very Fine School” by Sharon Creech.  The following announcements will be helpful to you and your family for the week of September 6-10.

Wow, I continue to be impressed with our students and our staff.  The staff goes above and beyond with the lessons that they prepare for our students. Our students have put forth much effort to do their best during their instructional time.   Please make sure you are checking PowerSchool to see if all of your child’s assignments have been completed and submitted whether it be in Google Classroom or a different way at the teacher’s request.
