GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I love the people and community here in Avon. I have found my very best friends in Avon. They are friends who are loving and supportive. I have also built great relationships with teachers here. They are fun but their classes can be challenging. They are very caring and overall great people.

We have a few options for clubs, but not nearly as many as my old school. The ones here aren't as active as the ones at my old school either

good math and science programs and teachers! the math teacher and one of our science teachers were both involved in SD Teacher of the Year, and the science teacher actually ended up getting the award one year.
