Re: Information Update

Positive Cases

We send this communication to pass along information about COVID cases this week at Avon.  Over the course of the week, we have been made aware of the following student positives:  11th grader whose last day of attendance was 1/29, 10th grader whose last day was 1/26, 9th grader whose last day was 2/5, and a 4th grader whose last day was 1/29.  The collective contract tracing did not yield any additional required quarantines based on school contact.    

Grade 7 & 8 Hybrid Models

More details will follow in a separate communication, however we want you to know the District initiated a planning process intending to bring students to school more of the time.  Based on the models in place and the information we have currently available, we are planning for the following:

  • Return Grade 7 students on March 8th to a 4 day per week model; and

  • Return Grade 8 students on March 15th to a 4 day per week model. 

  • We initiated the planning phase, and we continue to navigate the logistics. 

  • More information will be shared in a separate communication..

Avon Village Police Survey

The Village, Town, and District enjoy a strong collaborative partnership.  This collaboration benefits all parties.  One example of the collaboration is our School Resource Officer.  

Recent direction from New York State necessitated a scheduled review of municipal policing efforts.  Part of the process established by the review committee is to hear from community stakeholders.  Therefore, if you wish to participate; then please consider taking a few minutes to complete the following survey:

A copy of the survey can also be found on the Village website.  The survey closes at 11:59 PM on Sunday, February 14th.  Participation is voluntary.
