During the week of May 5 - 9, 2025, the Friends are organizing a celebration of our Teachers and Staff. This is our chance to say "Thank You" for all they have done to help our children during this past year. Please help us thank our entire staff who make Mount Aviat Academy a place where children can grow.

If you are ordering from Amazon, you can have any items delivered to the school. The Address is: 399 Childs Rd.,Childs, MD 21916 - Attention: Sr. Joseph Margaret. Packages also can be dropped off in the breezeway during Easter Week. We would appreciate all donations sent to school by Tuesday, April 29th. There are 33 staff members as well as the 8 Sisters who help run the school.

If you prefer to send in a cash or check donation, please send it into school in an envelope marked "Teacher Appreciation c/o Sr. Joseph Margaret."

Grandparents' Day Information

Our annual Grandparents' Day event will take place on Friday, May 9th. Invitations went out in early April to grandparents. If for some reason the grandparents in your family do not receive the mailing soon, please contact admissions@mountaviat.org to ensure we have their information in FACTS. Grandparents will join us on May 9th at

10 am for a prayer service, show, and lunch. RSVPs must be received by May 1 to ensure lunches can be prepared. If your grandparent plans to sign out your child at the end of the event, please notify the homeroom teacher via email beforehand and ensure the grandparent signs out your child.

Volunteers Needed! We need a few parent volunteers to assist with making lunches for Grandparents' Day on May 8th from 9-11 am and then distributing them on May 9th from 11-12. If you are available and interested in helping, please contact Mrs. Nichols at admissions@mountaviat.org. Thank you!
