GO AVON! UPDATE

August 19, 2021

Dear Class of 2025 and students new to Avon:

On August 11 you received an invitation from me to participate in GO AVON!, an orientation program prior to the start of school. We are fortunate that we have a dedicated group of AHS upperclassmen who have planned this orientation session for you.

I am thrilled to inform you that bus transportation is now available!

Specialty Transportation will begin their morning pick-up at 8:15 a.m. using the revised bus routes listed below. Please note that these revised bus routes will be used on GO AVON! Day only and your child may be picked up/dropped off at a stop different from their regularly assigned bus location used during the school year. Students should take the bus at the nearest bus location listed below. Buses will be shared with Avon MIddle School on this day. AHS students are asked to sit in the back two sections of the bus for cohorting purposes. At dismissal, students will board the same lettered bus as they came on. Please have your child write down the letter of his/her bus, as it will be the same bus that brings your child home. Students will be dropped off along bus routes within 30 minutes of dismissal depending on the route. If you prefer to drive your child, students may be dropped off at AHS no earlier than 8:45 a.m. and picked up at 11:00 a.m. Cars are not permitted in the front circle. Students must be dropped off and picked up along the designated area of the school by the student parking lot. A map showing our student drop off and pick up routes can be found below.

We hope to see as many of our new 9th graders and new students as possible on Friday, August 27th. Please feel free to contact our main office at 860-404-4740 with any questions.
