Wow, what a year Altar Valley! Together we finished the month of May out with many creatively planned events and celebrations. Enjoy a few of the end of the year highlights.
Promotion
The Hawaiian themed drive thru promotion for our preschool and Kindergarten students at Robles Elementary School was a huge success. Thank you to all of our preschool and Kindergarten families and staff that made it so special.
A drive thru 8th grade promotion was available to our 8th grade students and families in addition to the in-person 8th grade promotion celebration at Altar Valley Middle School. Thank you to all who made this possible including, Three Points Fire, Friends of Robles Ranch, AVMS staff, and to our guest speakers, John Williams, Kaycee Wallace, and Dan Tankersley.
Night of All-Stars
Thanks again to our innovative teachers and students that met the challenge this year by creating a Night of All-Stars Google site to highlight their end of the year Culminating Projects. Please take the time to explore the various grade levels and classrooms to see the learning that occurred this year at: Night of All-Stars Website.
Governing Board Celebrates our Staff
During Teacher appreciation week our Governing Board recognized ALL of our staff for what they do to challenge all of our students to achieve success by personally going around and thanking each staff member with AVSD swag.
The Governing Board also celebrated all of our staff this year with our annual end of the year Barbecue! Thank you to Chief Williams and Bobby Ethridge for BBQing all the burgers and dogs.
8th Grade Student Staff Volleyball
The 8th graders challenged the AVSD staff to an end of the year volleyball match! Everyone won that day as the middle school students cheered on their favorite team.
Last Day of School
We ended the last day of school with field days at both schools. Fun was had by all! Thank you to Three Points Fire for all of your support and water!
