Dear Parents,
As parents and educators, we desire the same thing for our children - the best possible education. At AVA, we are committed to every child's success. As part of that process, we strive to create balanced classes that meet the academic and social needs of your child.
Meetings for placement into K-8 grades will take place during the April teacher in-service day. At each grade level, the classroom teachers and all of our professional staff will meet to provide input for placement in the 2022-2023 school year.
As you may know, each of our classes is a heterogeneous group of children. When we develop our classes, we consider reading and math abilities, gender, learning style/teaching style, behavioral patterns, peer relationships and overall class balance.
The professional staff has the responsibility to determine the best placement for each child. If your child has needs that are not already known to the school, please communicate that with your child's current teacher as soon as possible. We are not able to consider requests for specific teachers or friends, but I assure you that we strive to make the best placement for each child.
Through a collaborative effort, I am confident that we will provide the best possible instructional program for every student.
Bob Barber
AVA Principal
