Communication is key in the virtual environment! Checking email daily is crucial for success. If you find yourself forgetting to check your email, schedule a specific time to check it. For example, you might check it before lunch, at the end of the day, or before classes start.

Meet this week’s teacher: Mrs. Rose! She is the music teacher and virtual choir director at AVS for grades 6-12.
If Mrs. Rose could travel anywhere in the world, she would go to Germany. Her favorite book is The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Outside of school, you might find her baking, working on carpentry projects, and taking walks with her dog, Tovy.
Mrs. Rose chose to work at AVS because she loves teaching music online. Before she came to AVS, she taught music fully online for four years! She enjoys finding creative and innovative ways to make music in the virtual environment and helping students reach their full potential.
Thanks Mrs. Rose for all you do at AVS! Tune in next Monday to meet the next AVS team member.

Happy new year! We’re back to featuring the awesome teachers, admin, and staff that work at AVS.
Meet this week’s teacher: Mr. Cornett! He is an Occupational Course of Study(OCS) teacher at AVS.
Did you know that Mr. Cornett is related to another AVS teacher(Mrs. Cornett who teaches 9-12 business classes)? It’s no surprise that one of Mr. Cornett’s favorite traditions is Friday Family Dinner.
Mr. Cornett chose to be part of the AVS family due to his familiarity with the distance learning environment. He hopes that these insights will help him to be a positive force in helping kids experience a high level of success in the virtual landscape.
Thanks Mr. Cornett for all you do at AVS! Tune in next Monday to meet the next AVS team member.

A travel wish of Mr. Dodson is to have a spa day in an exotic location like the Hot springs in Greenland, Japan, Norway, or perhaps somewhere local too! We all have heroes and Mr. Dodson’s hero is Tim Sweeny, founder and CEO of Epic Games. In his leisure time he enjoys hiking, drawing, and exploring places off the normal trails.
Mr. Dodson believes that a virtual option should be available for all families for a variety of reasons. He sees AVS as been a great place with motivated staff and involved families.

Meet this week’s teacher: Mrs. Webb! She is the High School Spanish teacher at AVS.
Some of Ms. Webb interests are line dancing, snorkeling, and she has attended Appalachian football games for over 40 years! When she was in school she, of course, liked Spanish, but also enjoyed Math and played the saxophone in middle school. Her heroes are her grandmothers who were always gracious and generous.
Ms. Webb is excited to be a part of the AVS family because I love using technology to enhance student learning. Her favorite part has been working with students who attend class with a thirst for knowledge and a willingness to take risks in the language.
Thanks Ms. Webb for all you do at AVS! Tune in next Monday to meet the next AVS team member!
