As part of our School Improvement plan, AVS will survey students on topics such as support from adults at AVS, feelings about participation in class, interest in class topics, etc.
Parents/guardians must provide consent for students to take part in the survey. To opt-in for your student to take this survey, please complete the form below.
The information gained from surveying students on these areas will help us focus on activities that will engage students, which in turn helps them succeed. The survey will be given in Winter and Spring of 2024.

Winter Spirit Week wraps up tomorrow with No Alarm Day! Thursday, December 21, 2023 is NOT a student day, so no alarms are needed to make it to class on time! Thanks to all that participated in our Winter Spirit Week! Enjoy your break!
AVS wishes all our students a great Winter Break! Please enjoy this time with loved ones to recharge! Classes resume on Tuesday, January 2, 2024. Here are some suggestions for students to make sure logging in on the first day back from break goes smoothly:
❄Put your Chromebook and charger where you can find it in January. If you have notebooks/notes/material for classes keep those with your device.
❄Before class on 1/2/2024 check to make sure your device and browser have the most updated software.
❄Be sure you know your login information for Google and Canvas. If you need to write down your email address and other login information to remember them, do that.
❄When the calendar turns to 2024, be sure your device is plugged in to be fully charged as school resumes.
❄Were you having any issues before break? Consider clearing your browser’s cache. You will need to log back into the ABSS Zscaler filter once you clear your cache. Video link reminder of how to clear your cache: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI3yYgwcDcg
