he last academic year ended with a bang for
Daystar Academy Beigao Campus, with the
school receiving the wonderful news that we
had become both a PYP and MYP Authorized

collaborative effort of everyone involved.
In this edition of VOICES, Chief Editor Ja Wuttithamrong
sat down with the two key staff members who were
instrumental in the success for the MYP authorization:
Jessica Heyman, our Director of Academic Services
and Program Innovation, and Shawna Turner, MYP
Coordinator and Individuals and Society Teacher. Find
out how we were able to receive authorization in
record time, and what makes our MYP Program unique.
