Avon Middle/High School Reviews
Rating 3.39 out of 5 41 reviews
It is a very small community and due to this it does not get a lot of attention nor funding. There has been a lot of internal struggles in the school recently with vandalism in the bathroom causing only one bathroom to be accessible to all of the high school students. It is very short staffed with teachers being fired and hired in the middle of the year and the overall unstable environment can be damaging. I do adore many of the long-time teachers at these schools who are consistently advocating on behalf of the students. Despite, the schools small size it is filled with many talented and hardworking students that create an interactive environment. The best thing about AMHS is its diversity with students from all different backgrounds. But the school must improve on providing better resources to these students and is in dire need of funding to create a safer space both mentally and physically.
The school is entirely hit or miss. A lot of the teachers that have been employed here for an extended time are highly qualified and really good people. There are a lot of great teachers, don’t get me wrong, but I do have to say they aren’t very selective when it comes to hiring newer faculty. Since the admin turnover I’ve seen a lot more student involvement in decision making. The student council is highly regarded amongst school committees, they do value students opinions. The student body is incredibly diverse, but also very, very small. You’ll generally know just about everyone in your grade at any given time. I could probably tell you everyone’s middle names. There aren’t a huge selection of AP classes, and we don’t offer IB. Also, we offer dual enrollment but it’s not at all advertised. I didn’t find out about it until recently. We have a few clubs to choose from, and overall okay sports.
Avon Middle/High School is a small school about 300 students. What I like about it is since the classes are small, the teachers are able more 1 on 1 help with students if they are struggling. What I would like to see change is more students be involved in different clubs or organizations that the school has to offer such as National Honor Society, Student council, band ect.
