AVA Family Update
December 1, 2023
Good morning AVA Students and Families,
I have next week's schedule, our guidance updates, and community notices linked below as usual.
We have completed our first Trimester. Teachers are closing out grades and we will publish report cards in Aspen next Wednesday. If you have any questions about grades or anything else, please reach out.
Students should check Aspen to ensure they are aware of any new classes they might be taking in Trimester 2, and they will notice that new classes have been added to Edgenuity as well. Once teachers have a chance to close out their grades for single trimester courses, I will archive them in Edgenuity to avoid any confusion.
Thank you for your time.
