Dear Colorado Skies Academy Families,

Summer is here! We made it! Your learners have completed Poetry Parties, Geography projects, novel studies, human biomes and body systems, alien creation, literary analyses, coding, 3D printing and so much more!

They have been part of creating a Culture of Honor at CSA and shaping who we are as a school community. They have forged friendships in the fires of middle school and came out stronger and hopefully more resilient. Your learners have reflected on their learning and identified highs and lows, challenges, and successes. Some of you are changing paths and moving forward in new places, and we wish you all the best! Some are returning to CSA in the fall, and we are excited to continue on this journey with you. Thank you all for trusting us with your learners, and giving us the privilege of getting to know them. It is our great honor to be part of their middle school story. I hope that you will be refreshed and renewed this summer, enjoying your time together.

Sincerely, Meredith
