From the Voyager Academy Managing Director, Sept. 24, 2021

Dear Voyager Community,

Fall has arrived on campus and the kids are enjoying the outdoors at lunch, PE class, and recess.  We had another exciting week of learning and growing on campus and demonstrating our core values. I had the opportunity to see a class debate in English, view students researching Native American tribes and creating a presentation in Social Students, see 3D printed student designs from the Computer Models and Physical structures classes, and watch the HS Volleyball team compete. Voyager really showed our true colors on Wednesday with a “Purple Out” day sponsored by the High School Student Council. The campus was a sea of purple to raise awareness and demonstrate our support for student, Layla Sawyer, and teacher, Laura McGinnis, who are fighting cancer. What an incredible demonstration of empathy and concern for our school community. Voyager is truly a special community!

Fall is in the air and great things are happening at Voyager Academy.  We have been polling the students this week to determine what fall activities they like best.  Hiking, playing in the leaves and roasting marshmallows are the top three options.  I hope you and your family are able to complete one of those activities during this month.  The following updates will be helpful for you and your family for the week of Sept. 27 - October 01.

Hi all, 

We’ve had a great week at the middle school!  Our students are beginning to get back in the groove of school. Yes, it has taken some time as staying at home had some of our students thinking they were still at home.  Thanks for your continued support of our teachers and our students!
