I first came to Voyager in my Junior year of High School. I was very nervous about making new friends and having new classes with people who had already known each other for so long. I was able to have a smooth transition and I became super close with my teachers. The students were so nice to welcome me in and now I have so many friends.

It's a good school that really ends up preparing you for college or at least helping you get ready to enroll yourself if needed. I feel as if the school attracts more extroverted and outgoing people though as if you aren't either of those things them you most likely will keep to yourself, the faculty and environment is just fine and the curriculum is very manageable.

This is the best school ever! The teachers are amazing and they care so much about the students! I have had such a good experience at this school and I would recommend this school to anyone! The school challenges kids who need it and helps kids who need it. I love this school!

Worst school ever for the amount of stuff that is swept under the rug the bullying is ridiculous
9/10/2023
My child had a great experience at voyager elementary. He shined. He felt loved, happy and safe. At middle school, that all changed. He still felt safe and had plenty of friends, but the kids were out of control. The teachers didn't have enough structure, or maybe it was just that the kids were too...

Too much bullying and nothing being done.
