Message from the Director

Colorado SKIES Academy Families,

It was such an honor to celebrate our CSA Veterans and hear their inspirational stories shared during the Veterans Day assembly! Gratitude to Mr. Kemper and Mr. E. for organizing and executing such a memorable experience for our learners and families. Speaking of memorable experiences, we are excited to share photo galleries from our recent Project 1 Presentation of Learning days, the CSA Pumpkin Drop, and the Dia De Los Muertos celebration. Please click here to view the photos from these events!

Most CSA learners completed their Fall NWEA MAP assessments last week, and the family reports will be sent home with your learner in their Flight Crew class. We will complete the final makeup tests this week. Our CSA learners have been hard at work planning events for our community and they expressed interest in helping the school communities affected by the recent hurricanes. As a result, the  CSA Learner Ambassadors have organized this school supply drive.

The CSA Learner Ambassadors are organizing a Winter Dance and need your help. The dance is being held on Dec 13, 2024, after school from 3-5 pm. The theme for the dance is The Nightmare Before Christmas. We request your assistance with chaperones, food, drinks, music, decorations, and set-up & clean-up. Please help us by signing up here. If you have any questions, please contact the Learner Ambassador Advisors; Mr. Kemper or Ms. Kristoffersen. Thank you for all that you do for CSA and all the learners!!

Please remind your learners about our co-pilot shadow days where they can earn their wings! We encourage learners to invite friends, neighbors, and relatives to climb into the cockpit and see how an aviation & aerospace-focused 6-8th grade education takes flight at Colorado SKIES Academy! Guests will shadow as a “Co-Pilot for a Day” and get an up-close encounter with classes, projects, and facilitators. Co-Pilots will experience firsthand the unique learning opportunities your learner is experiencing every day here at Colorado SKIES Academy. Each pilot receives a unique CSA commemorative pin, and each co-pilot receives a CSA swag bag.

A friendly reminder to regularly check the CSA Community Calendar which usually includes the upcoming POL details, MAP testing dates, and other school events such as Tour and Co-Pilot days. We’re always here to support you and your learner and are excited to soar to new heights together! Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

In partnership, Directors Coryell and Motley
