We absolutely love this school Both of my daughters attend - my oldest is in 5th grade and my youngest is in 1st grade. We have been here since they started Kindergarten and have never had any issues with this school, the teachers, or the leadership at the school! It is located in a great & safe neighborhood. Every teacher we've had has been awesome! And both of our girls are doing very well!

We've had such a positive experience for the past five years at AVCS. My child is enrolled in the dual immersion program and I am so impressed with the excellent academic environment. Teachers are friendly and professional and communicate frequently. Although the principal is strict, she has high standards, is a strong leader and holds regular informal meetings with parents so they can voice concerns. Heavy parental involvement and a strong sense of community at the school has made elementary school an enjoyable experience for our family.

Wonderful school. I've had a daughter go through every grade and my ten year old is moving to 5th grade. Both have been very happy with all of their teachers as have we the parents. There is a great deal of parent involvement and some great events all through the year. The principle Mrs Roth is very strict BUT fair and keeps a tight ship. Highly recomended

We just left this school due to a move. Academically they are a great school, lots of parent involvement is highly encouraged as well. However I was very concerned with the high teacher ratio. I noticed alot of favoritism from top leadership with teachers. My biggest concern is the lack of an effective school bully policy. They hung my son out amongst his peers for reporting being bullied. I dont understand what the teachers, noon duties are doing at recess because obviously they are not watching the children.When it is reported if that child doing the bulling is a well known child due to his parent working at the school either on staff or volunteer, they are allowed to get away with the unexcusable behavior. Academically the school is good, teachers are great. However I have seen great teachers let go because they were not a favorite with the principal.

By doing it in the funnest way possible,we have to make it exciting for them. Maybe reward them after they are done AND DID THERE BEST. Parents must be totally involved.

You shouldn't, have a study hall if they need help. When you learn you need a teacher, students can study on their own time.
