AVA Family Update
March 24, 2023
Good evening AVA Families,
We are back to our regular schedule next week as is pictured below.
Trimester 2 grades were posted on Wednesday. If you are having trouble accessing it, please let me know.
Lastly, important information on the senior prom/graduation week events and ceremonies are updated below. If you wish to attend events and/or commencement, please read through it carefully. I welcome any questions. As per usual, if you need to come into the building to get forms/drop forms off, or anything else that requires you to be here, please let me know beforehand so I can help you get what you want to get done efficiently.
The usual guidance and community updates are below and I thank you for your time.

Guidance Update
Grades 9-12 - NCAA Registration
This is a kind reminder to students and families who are interested in participating in collegiate sports to register online with the NCAA. Although you may register even after high school graduation, we recommend doing so while still enrolled in high school to ensure a smoother transfer of school records and information. AVA's CEEB code for NCAA registration is: 220067.

Juniors
AVA Guidance will continue conducting Junior Interviews in the coming weeks with the Class of 2024 about where they stand in graduation progress, GPA, and future planning. To help juniors and families prepare, consult this junior-senior timeline sheet and the junior interview form.
Seniors - IMPORTANT: Last call for AHS Scholarships!
Though the deadline is April 1st (next week), please keep in mind that most applications require components such as essay, letters of recommendation, and resume. Please take time to prepare these this coming week if you plan to apply. Special attention goes to the online-only Attleboro High School Scholarship application HERE; all AVA seniors are strongly encouraged to apply even if you/your family is still unsure what path you'll take after graduation.
Feel free to peruse the Googledrive folder for digital copies or the AHS Guidance Dept. scholarship site HERE. Email Ms Nellie for help anytime!
Like most weeks, be on the lookout in your Attleboro student email for the AHS Guidance Dept. senior weekly update that will be emailed separately over the weekend.
As always, please email me at nng@attleboroschools.com with any comments, suggestions, and concerns, or to make a virtual meeting appointment. Have a pleasant weekend!

Senior Prom/Senior Week Events/Graduation
This was emailed to all seniors already, l, but I wanted to ensure you received this information. Below you will find two documents:
1. The Senior DOC file has everything you need to know about everything, and where to reach out if you have any questions.
2. The Prom Permission Slip is vital to any students wanting to attend prom.
I hope to see many of our students at many of these events.
