Greetings, Voyager Families. 


A special thanks to our Voyager families and friends for your incredible efforts in making our first annual Fun Run a resounding success! The enthusiasm and energy displayed by our students during the event were truly infectious. It was heartwarming to see them having such a fantastic time while participating in this healthy and enjoyable activity.


A massive round of applause is also due to our exceptional VBC and volunteers. Your dedication and hard work did not go unnoticed, and we are immensely grateful for the support you provided throughout the event.


I am thrilled to announce that, thanks to everyone's combined efforts, we were able to raise an impressive $9,912! This achievement is a testament to the generosity and community spirit that thrives within our school. The funds raised will be utilized by the Voyager Booster Club to further support our students and enhance their educational experience. Whether it's through providing additional resources, organizing enriching activities, or supporting various school initiatives, your generosity will undoubtedly make a significant impact.


There is still time to show your support! We currently have 30% of our students signed up and would love to get to 50%!  Click the link to sign up: https://www.getmovinfundhub.com/register?school_uuid=66311c0e021a4


Donations will be accepted through May 27th at midnight. Donations to determine our Top 10 fundraisers will close this Sunday, May 19th. On Monday, Field day, they will get to soak a staff member who has volunteered!  


Have a wonderful weekend!


Warm regards,


Danielle Schmidt


 

A Field Day Message from Mrs. Schrock

Hi everyone,

We are SO close to Field Day! It is this upcoming Monday, May 20th. Here are a couple of reminders:

Please send a water bottle to school with your child. They will be able to keep them in a wagon that a volunteer will bring around as students move to the different stations.

If you signed up to donate items please bring them in no later than this Friday (I am still waiting on a couple items that were signed up for). I will be setting up stations this weekend and need all the items to set them up.

If you signed up to volunteer, please arrive at 9:00 am for the morning session and at 12:30 pm for the afternoon session so that I can give directions and we can start promptly. In order to volunteer, you must have a completed background check. Also, your flexibility with volunteering is appreciated if unexpected last minute changes are needed.

More information is included in the attached photo, and I have included the sign up genius link as well as a reminder.

Please let me know if you have any questions ([email protected])! 

Mrs. Schrock
