Co-President

Having been part of the Voyager family since 2020, I have had the privilege of witnessing our educators' incredible dedication and talent, the vibrant spirit of our students, and the unwavering support of our parent community. As a mother of a 6th and 4th grader, I understand firsthand the joys and challenges of navigating the educational journey alongside our children.

I have been actively involved in various school activities, from hospitality luncheons, room parent, field trips, STEM day, field day, Spring Fling, and Fall Festival. I am eager to collaborate with fellow parents, teachers, and students to foster a supportive and enriching learning environment.

Currently, I am a stay-at-home mom with a part-time job as the Operations Manager at Craft & Drafts. I have honed my organizational skills and leadership abilities while managing daily operations and fostering positive relationships with customers and staff. This experience has given me valuable insights into effective team dynamics, resource management, and community engagement, which I am eager to share with the PTSO.

Co-President

We have been part of the Voyager Family since our daughter started Kindergarten in 2018. Our daughter is now in 7th, and our son is in 5th.

Throughout the years, I have been a room parent, helped with lunch coverage for our teachers, helped with teacher luncheons/breakfast, collected teacher gifts, field trips, and volunteered my time to any of the teachers who needed it. 

As the Co-President, I will work hard alongside our amazing PTSO team so that we can help our Voyager family continue to thrive!

My name is Kristy Dunham. I have lived in Durham for 18 years. I have two boys who attend Voyager. Tanner (15) who is in 9th grade and Ian (12 )who is in 7th. I have worked in the education field for over 20 years. Seventeen of those years were with preschoolers the last four have been here at Voyager working as a 2nd grade teaching assistant and starting this year as an EC teaching assistant. I was teaching assistant of the year for the 22/23 school year and could not have been more honored. I love working with students and seeing the growth they make and how hard they work day in and day out.

Our family has been at Voyager Academy for one year.  We have a first grader this year and a preschooler who will be attending next year for Kindergarten.  Over the last year, I have worked at the ES to provide lunch coverage, help with Teacher Luncheons, chaperone Field Trips, and this year serving as the Room Parent for First Grade.   Being at the school for only one year I am impressed with the level of involvement from families within our schools.  I believe this community has a lot of potential and I look forward to working with others to reach those goals.  I work in Sales and have been with the company for 13 years. I am an avid sports fan and enjoy getting together with friends and family.  My husband and I have been married for 11 years and live in South Durham with our two girls and one spoiled dog!
