News from The Voyagers




Voyagers work hard and they play hard too!  A fabulous day was had by all at Jay Peak testing our skills on the slopes. The weather even pitched in with a nice healthy dose of sunshine. A huge 'thanks' to all the family members and staff who came along for the fun!

There will be no band lessons for this morning for Mr. Mehaffey, he will be back at 12 noon, and all afternoon stuff is on. String lessons are on for today. Sorry for the inconvenience.

St. Albans City School has been challenged in another Mangahigh Fai-To!



We are battling Locust Grove Elementary in our latest challenge.  If you have a Mangahigh account through school, get on to play a game or complete a challenge set by your teacher or the Mangahigh Sensei.  The first school to win 5 rounds wins all of the points and the trophy.  Lets make it two wins in a row!  Go Raiders!
