Thank you for understanding!!!
Students in grades 8-12 showed off their book projects today in English. They had to read a book of their choice independently and create a holiday decoration that represented at least 2 literary elements (plot, setting, theme, characters, symbolism, etc.). Mrs. Hubbell enjoyed seeing what they created and hearing all about their books!

The Avon Choir Department were busy bees on Wednesday, December 11th, making the rounds spreading Christmas cheer through music all around town. At 9 am the 8th grade loaded a bus and made their way to three daycares in town. They started at Mellissa’s daycare, loving that some kids were plugging their ears, while others were jiving in their seats. Then they headed to Avon Pirate Prep, where all the kiddos sat so nicely and one cutie ended our song with an enthusiastic “YAY!!” Our last stop was to Cindy Sassaman’s daycare. Most of the kiddos were excited for us to be there, minus a baby that wasn’t sure about our performance. The 8th grade headed back to class, but April kept the bus warm because soon after, the Avon High School Choir members loaded the bus to head to the Manor. There, they sang their Christmas songs they performed at their concert, and even added two birthday songs for two community members. They performed so well, bringing tears to a few people’s eyes. These community outreach experiences are so good for our students, and by seeing the smiles on the audience’s faces it is all so very well worth it. Everyone have a blessed Christmas season and thank you for allowing us to perform for you on this cold December day!
Some of the students were set up in the library to watch Treyvan and Terran Talsma compete at World Finals Rodeo.
Good luck gentlemen!
