Marie Murphy Book Fair
Volunteers are needed for the Marie Murphy Book Fair. We are looking for volunteers to help set up on May 16 and tear down on May 23rd. We ask that parent volunteers do not bring their children because volunteers will be moving heavy boxes and tables. Sign up here! For more information or questions, please contact Carrie Stotz at stotzc@avoca37.org
Marie Murphy End of Year Party
Help the 6th and 7th graders celebrate the end of the school year on June 6th! We need parent volunteers between 11:15-3:15 to help the teachers in supporting the end-of-year party activities, serve lunch and help clean up. We also need donations for snacks for the kids. All items can either be dropped off at the school on WEDNESDAY, June 5th by 3pm. Contact roopalkundu@gmail.com for more information. Sign up here.
Open: 2024-2025 Returning Student Registration
Registration for the 2024-2025 opened on April 15. If you haven't received the registration email or have any questions, please email registration@avoca37.org. Each returning student will receive a separate email containing an embedded "snapcode" which is unique to that student. Please complete registration by May 30, 2024.
Similar to last year, Pre-K students enrolled at Avoca Community Preschool will not receive a returning student registration link. If your child is transitioning to kindergarten at Avoca West, you will receive a new student registration link once we have received all required pre-registration documents.
