We wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a very happy 2022! As we look forward to the rest of the school year and the beginning of the 2022-23 school year we realize we are in need of extra help and volunteers! If you are looking to become more involved with AVA, then we would LOVE to have you join us. We will have some positions open up for PTO officers for the 2022-23 school year. In addition to those positions we are always looking for parents to help with different projects. Each officer leads their own projects and we could use help on a few different committees. Some upcoming things that will be happening this year, that we will need help with, are Morning with Moms, Staff Appreciation, and the Spring Fundraiser. We continue to have monthly spirit nights, staff luncheons, staff mailbox treats, and pay for dress of choice. The yearbook is also well on it’s way to being published. We love all of the submissions we have gotten. Thank you for the continued support you show for each of these activities.
If you are interested in joining us, or we have piqued your curiosity please send an email to pto@aspenviewacademy.org and we will get an informational zoom meeting organized or a phone call to discuss what opportunities we have available.

Welcome to another school year at Aspen View Academy. We have a lot of volunteer opportunities so keep a look out for Sign-up Genius', Newsletter announcements and emails from the PTO. Below is an excerpt from the AVA Handbook.
VOLUNTEERING COMMITMENT – AVA believes that the success of each student will be a shared responsibility of students, teachers, parents, staff, and community leaders. Volunteers enhance the school and its culture and character through their involvement. Accordingly, a strong family involvement program will be implemented. AVA expects 30 volunteer hours per family per school year. Single-parent families are expected to volunteer 15 hours per school year. The volunteer school year shall coincide with AVA’s fiscal year, and hours shall accrue from July 1 through June 30. If your family has special circumstances that make it difficult for you to meet the expected volunteer hours, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator. Many volunteer opportunities exist within AVA’s PTO. The PTO is an organization comprised of parent volunteers for the purpose of providing community support, fundraising and planning various events within our school community.
Pre-registration is required prior to volunteering. Please visit the Raptor Volunteer site, as this only needs to be completed one time. Once completed we will need you to bring your ID in to scan and link to your profile.
These volunteer opportunities can also be found on the volunteer page of our website.
