Testimonial:
And to pass along some more feedback: our son has been absolutely THRILLED since moving to AVS. We knew he was not getting what he needed in a traditional classroom setting but we didn’t want to do all his schooling at home. The blended learning approach - which makes things SO much easier for our home-based teaching team - is the perfect fit for us. It’s the best of public school and the best of a custom-fit learning environment for our son. We are so happy! Thank you!
