AVA Family Update
May 25, 2026
Good afternoon AVA students and families,
I have the usual schedule, guidance, and community updates below.
Our seniors have entered their final week. I will be in touch with all families in the next week to let them know where we stand. Many have asked for a bit more time to improve their grades, and we'll be as flexibile as we can be.
Thank you for your time.

Senior Exit Survey - Final Reminder
All AVA seniors: please complete this super quick Class of 2026 Exit Survey. All public high schools must report this data to the state, and it is very helpful in informing our school's practices and planning for future senior classes. You must be logged into your attleborops.net account to view and submit the survey. This survey is MANDATORY for graduating seniors, and cap/gown/diploma may be withheld until submitted, so please ask questions to Ms. Nellie and submit asap if you have not yet!
As always, please feel free to email me (nng@attleboroschools.com) with any questions, comments, or concerns. Have a great long weekend!
