We are proud to announce the 2024 ABSS Teachers of the Year! 🌟
These exceptional teachers are making a real difference in their students' lives. They care deeply about their students’ growth and success every day. Whether helping a struggling learner find their confidence, making lessons fun through imaginative activities, or supporting students through life's challenges, their student-first commitment is worthy of praise.
Please join us in celebrating them! 👏

As part of our School Improvement plan, AVS will survey students on topics such as support from adults at AVS, feelings about participation in class, interest in class topics, etc.
Parents/guardians must provide consent for students to take part in the survey. To opt-in for your student to take this survey, please complete the form below.
The information gained from surveying students on these areas will help us focus on activities that will engage students, which in turn helps them succeed. The survey will be given in Winter and Spring of 2024.
