Wow! We are already ending the 3rd quarter! When we come back after Easter break there will by only 42 days of school left this year! With that, we are in full swing of many elementary activities.
First, Math Olympics did their testing, and we should find out the results in April.
Second, the first round of Speech Meet is this week, and the winners will compete in the semi-finals in the chapel on Thursday, April 8th at 8:15 am.
Third, 3rd quarter Honor Roll students will be announced in April.
Fourth, our K-3 Easter Musical was a great success! Congratulations to all the students who participated and a big "Thank You" to Mrs. Schulder for all her hard work and patience.
Fifth, if you see Brooke Fisher around campus remember to congratulate her for her fourth finish in the District 4 Spelling Bee.
Enjoy your two week break from school. Have a blessed Easter celebration!

Wow, as we approach April we are looking at the last two full months of school left in the 2009-2010! What a whirlwind! Seniors are off to Europe, students are enjoying activities like Musicale, Easter break, Science camp, SAT tests, Catalina, Math Olympics, the Warrior Band at Knott’s Berry Farm, Art to Disneyland, Yearbook to Knott’s Berry Farm as well, and the list continues. Hold on to your hats and watch those calendars!
Hopefully, Seniors are making final decisions for next year. These are exciting times!
Juniors should be looking at taking the college entrance SAT’s at least once before this school year is over. Students can register by going to http://www.collegeboard.com/. Juniors please remember to start planning summer trips to visit colleges of interest.
Next year’s schedule will soon be out, and I will then be meeting with each of the students to discuss their future plans and making sure they are on track for graduation and college entrance.
As just a reminder here are the graduation requirements for our high school:
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
BIBLE Four (4) years or every semester in attendance at AVCS
ENGLISH Four (4) years
SOCIAL STUDIES Four (4) years
MATHEMATICS Three (3) years (Plus one additional year recommended)
SCIENCE Three (3) years (Plus one additional year recommended)
FOREIGN LANGUAGE Two (2) years
PHYSICAL EDUCATION Two (2) years - Each school team sport counts for ½ year
FINE ARTS One (1) year - Art, Choir, Drama
Students must have 270 credits to graduate.
Our standards for graduation are all based on the entrance expectations of the colleges, especially the University of California (UC) system.
As we fly through the end of this school year with much anticipation and excitement for next year, please feel free to drop in if you have any questions or would like to be sure that your high school student is on track.
Sincerely, Jean Huff

We have had a great third quarter here at AVCS, and I wanted to share just a few of my highlights with you. In January, I had the opportunity to go down to Rialto and watch some of your students participate in the ACSI District 4 Spelling Bee. You’ve gotta give it to these students; while everyone is enjoying Christmas break, they have a long list of spelling words that they are supposed to be studying! Our students did a great job, and Brooke Fischer got a ribbon for 4th place!
In February, I enjoyed going to basketball games and watched our girls’ basketball team make a run deep into the playoffs. Our girls made it to the semifinals before being eliminated by the team that eventually won it all. Way to go, girls! We also had our 4th annual auction in February. Lisa Kennedy did an amazing job putting this together, and the evening was a great success. We raised over $8,000 that evening!
To wrap up the third quarter, my wife and I had the awesome opportunity to go down to Pasadena and watch our high school choir participate in Musicale. Our students, under the direction of our choir teacher, Mrs. McLaughlin, participate every year in this three day event. Joy and I were only there on Friday, and we were worn out by the end. I don’t know how Mrs. McLaughlin survives! Our choir did an outstanding job and was ranked first of all 18 Southern California Christian schools in attendance! Musicale ended with a performance of all 900 students singing worship songs to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
As you can see, Spring break is needed by all, so enjoy your break. You deserve it! Be sure to take time to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! That is really why we do what we do around here; it’s all about Jesus! I hope that you and your family will take time to celebrate our risen Savior this Easter. Have a blessed Easter and a restful and fun Spring break!
