WE DID IT!
We made it through the school year! Critics said there was no way we could offer in-person learning, and we did. Then they said there is no way we will be able to stay open, and we did. We remained committed to offering our students an in-person option because we know that is what is best for kids. We also were committed to offering an eLearning option because we recognized that was best for some families. No matter the platform you chose, your grace and flexibility allowed us to do what we do best – educate kids!
Our entire staff at AVA worked hard and went above the call of duty to make sure we could continue to educate our students, whether it be in-person or eLearning. To say the school year had stressful moments is an understatement, but we worked hard to have our students participate in a learning atmosphere that is consistent, reliable, and supportive. There were bumps along the way, but our commitment never wavered.
I am proud to report that, due to the layered protocols that were implemented, we successfully made it through the school year. It has been so rewarding seeing our students coming to school every day with a smile on their face and leaving with a smile. Hearing the many positive comments from students from every grade mentioning how they enjoy being in school is music to my ears. Finishing the year with field days, the amazing race, and appreciation week was just what everyone needed. It showed a glimpse of normalcy and hope that the 2021-2022 school year can get us back to how things used to be. Thank you to our students, parents, and staff for your patience and commitment – we could not have done this without you!
All of this tells me that AVA is doing things right and that our kiddos truly enjoy Aspen View Academy.
Thank you for trusting us with your kids. It is a responsibility we do not take lightly and will continue to work hard and do what is best for our students.
I hope everyone enjoys a well-deserved, safe, and relaxing summer break.
