Dear Colorado SKIES Academy Parents and Supporters,

We’re on our way to the launch of the 2019/20 school year, and could not be more excited by the amazing educational experiences we have in store for your learners. We’re thrilled to announce the addition of two more incoming facilitators (our term for teachers at CSA). Rachel Sohns joins our CSA team to support English language arts, while Zachary Leins joins our team to support science and mathematics. You can learn more about these two outstanding educators in this week’s Monday Message.

As always, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email zach.vine@coloradoskiesacademy.org.

Warm Regards,
Zach Vine M.Ed, Director of Staff and Learner Programs
