Hello Avon Families!

We have had a wonderful start to the 2022-2023 school year. Students and staff were excited and ready to be back in the building. Students are settling in to using lockers again and finding their way around the building. I want to thank everyone for a wonderful start and I look forward to a fun, exciting, and successful school year together!

Our cafeteria will be having a Welcome Back to School Cookout for student lunches on Friday, September 9th. We will enjoy our lunch outside (weather permitting) that day will set up a few fun activities for students too! The cost of lunch is $3.25 and there will be hamburgers and hotdogs! If you have any specific dietary questions or needs please reach out to Michelle Davis (davism@avoneagles.org).

Sincerely,
Kelli Davisson

Principal

6) Safety - during our first week of school students talked about safety with their classroom teachers as well as with our SRO during grade level meetings. It is very important that if students "See Something, Say Something"! We conducted our first few safety drills during the first week as well. We did a fire drill and a full evacuation drill. Students did a fantastic job!

AMS Boosters Donation Campaign

In an effort to support your child, their school, and its staff, your friendly Booster club is sponsoring a donation campaign. Rather than asking students and their families to spend their limited and valuable time selling items, we simply ask that you donate to our campaign. Please follow this link to donate to our cause: https://2022-amsboosters-donation.cheddarup.com

Our first meeting is this week on Wednesday, September 7th @ 7PM in the AMS Commons! We hope to see you there!

We will be meeting all of our new students during our new student groups. These groups will run for about 3 weeks and will occur during Academic Flex Times. We will also do a meet and greet during the wheel classes for our 6th graders. We are prepping for MAP testing on September 6th (ELA) and September 7th (MATH).
