As the end of the year quickly approaches, we would like to thank you for all of your help to make yet another year happen. We are proud to have supported the families, staff, and students of AVA with numerous fun activities including the Beginning of the Year Party, Doughnuts with Dads, Valentine's Staff Gift Cards, Movie Night, Used Uniform Sales, Mornings with Mom, just to name a few.
We are beyond excited to announce our latest addition...the inaugural AVA Alumni Scholarship Program. Two former AVA students that will graduate this month, will be awarded a $2500 scholarship. We are expecting to announce the winners in mid-June on social media. Check out the website to find out all of the details! We hope that this will be a long lasting legacy which will be a way to honor all of the lifelong learning that happens inside these walls.
See you next year,
Your PTO

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.
