Avon North Families,

Thank you for an outstanding 2025–26 school year! I am incredibly proud of our students and staff for their dedication, hard work, and academic achievements throughout the year.

Our end-of-year celebrations including Field Day and our awards ceremonies were fantastic ways to cap off a successful school year. These events highlighted the excellent school community that we have at North when staff members, students and parents all come together to celebrate!

I wish you all a fantastic summer and best of luck next school year. If you are returning to AMSN, we will look forward to seeing you on Oriole Preview Day on July 22!

Sincerely,

Mike McKinney

Principal, AMSN

As we close out another wonderful school year, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support, encouragement, and partnership. It has truly been a great year filled with growth, learning, and many memorable moments for our students. Watching our students develop academically, socially, and emotionally has been such a rewarding experience.

Middle school is an important time of change and growth, and your support at home plays a huge role in helping students navigate challenges, celebrate successes, and build confidence along the way. We are so proud of all our students for their hard work, resilience, and kindness throughout the year. As summer begins, we hope your family has time to relax, recharge, and enjoy special moments together. Whether it’s traveling, spending time outdoors, or simply slowing down and enjoying a break from busy schedules, we wish you a safe, restful, and fun-filled summer.

Thank you for allowing us to be part of your child’s journey this year. It has been a pleasure supporting your students, and we look forward to another great year ahead! Have a wonderful summer! ☀️🌻📚

In Avon Schools, safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. A building access intercom system was installed at AMSNorth. Visitors will press the doorbell and be asked to identify yourself and provide a reason for your visit. Thank you for your patience in adapting to this updated, more secure system.

Attendance:

If a student is absent from school, a parent or guardian must call the school at 317-544-5500 by 10:00 am to report the absence or send an email to MNattendance@avon-schools.org

Early Dismissal:

When students have to leave school early for special appointments, a note from a parent or guardian must be brought from home to secure an “Early Dismissal” slip from the office. The note must be brought to the front office before school starts.

Tardy to School:

If a student arrives after the tardy bell, he/she must sign in at the office before going to class. Students who are late due to school bus problems are excused. Excessive tardiness to school may result in an assignment of lunch detention, before/after-school detention or Saturday School.

In the morning,

• Cars must merge into one lane before reaching Door 1.
