AVA Family Update

I have next week's schedule, the guidance and community updates, and important dates below as usual.

The community notices contain two items that might be of interest to students and families. Travel opportunities for students and a job and career fair that might interest students and adults. Please have a look.

I'll have progress reports for everybody next Wednesday, and I'll be confirming AP and MCAS testing requirements in May with all those who will need to report in person next week.

Thank you for your time.

NCAA Registration

Another reminder: AVA students and families who are interested in participating in collegiate sports through the NCAA, please register online at the Eligibility Center website (linked HERE) sooner than later. Although you may register even after high school graduation, we strongly 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.
