"Bytes" From Your School Leader, Dr. Townsend
May 24, 2024
Greetings Phalen Virtual Leadership Academy Families,
Happy Friday! It is our official last week of school and last day for teachers today! Thank you for trusting us to partner with you for the academic success of your scholar and supporting your family to ensure they accel in all areas.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Field Day in-person on Wednesday, May 22, 2024 at Riverside Park in Indianapolis and virtually via Blackboard with our teachers and staff. It was great to see all of you! We also enjoyed a wonderful talent show, 8th Grade Promotion, and Awards Ceremony. We had an amazing time playing games, enjoying the park, fellowshipping, giving way prizes to parents (we switched it up as parents give so much, so we had prizes for adults only). and Mr. Poe and Ms. Sepaniak manned the grill in excellence, cooking those hotdogs to perfection.
Thank you to everyone who participated in completing the family survey. Your feedback is important to us. We will use the data to plan for an evert greater 24-25 academic year with your voices being heard.
Registration is still open for Summer Advantage. We offer a FREE summer learning program that keeps scholars engaged this summer and having fun while learning. Please do not miss this free opportunity. Contact Mrs. Angie Baker abaker@phalenacademies.org or Deanna Maxwell, dmaxwell@phalenacademies.org to assist you with registration, or scan the QR code below.
Please be sure to check your email and ensure you have completed the intent to return form for your scholar(s) to ensure we have a seat next school year for everyone currently enrolled.
We look forward to seeing your scholar(s) at our summer events and on Monday, August 12, 2024 for the first day of school for the 2024-2025 academic year!
With Gratitude,
Dr. Townsend, Principal

Summer school is required for students who have failed at least two core classes, and students and parents have been contacted if they require summer school.
Students will need to login to class June 3-July 3, 2024 via Zoom Monday-Thursday from 9am-1pm and work to complete all credit recovery courses. . A teacher will be present to support and attendance is mandatory and will be logged by teachers. If your student completes their classes earlier they may be eligible to be excused for the remainder of the term upon administrative review.
