AVA Family Update

As I told the seniors this morning, unless they and their families received an email from me this morning, they are all set to graduate. For those participating in the ceremony, I will see them at 8:30 on Tuesday for the first rehearsal. For those not participating, we will work out how to get the diplomas to them in the manner they prefer on Monday after graduation.

For students in grade 9-11, we have a few weeks left. I will be alerting students and families of any student in academic or attendance trouble next week. As many seniors have just demonstrated, students can do quite a bit of catching up in a short time due to the flexibility of the program. They should do their best to take advantage of it.

We have a Monday holiday schedule next week, and it is pictured below.

I hope everyone gets to enjoy the long Memorial Day weekend.
