a. Blue Ribbon Celebration Final Report
The April 17, 2019 celebration was an event that won’t be forgotten at Aviston Elementary School.
From the picture of over 400 people in the back yard, to the assembly, to the parade, to the talent show, the day went off without a hitch. Everyone did their part to make the day successful. The kitchen worked with volunteer parents to make food for everyone, the aides managed kids on the playground for the afternoon, the teachers worked on committees to prepare for the parade and the show, and the PTA came through with lots of volunteers and funding for shirts, swag, and donuts! It was truly a day hat we will all look back and smile about, because it was just a great display of Aviston Eagle school spirit.
