Congratulations to our Avilla Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Erin Garl. Her colleagues voted for her and it's fun to celebrate her continued effort to spread love and learning around our school. Erin is a wife and mother of three, co-leads our National Elementary Honor Society, and is just plain nice to everyone. Thank you for being you, Mrs. Garl. You deserve to be celebrated, and we're lucky to call you a friend and colleague.

We are celebrating February birthdays with cake from our awesome food service staff!


Thanks to Roger Urick and his team for providing food to just about every EN staff member today. Everything was fantastic!


No school for our EN kids, but class is in session for all of our teams. Ruth Ayres is kicking off with a session about enticing kids to become writers.


Last week's dress up week at Avilla Elementary resulted in $614.84 of donations from students and staff! These funds will be going to Big Brothers Big Sisters and Humane Society of Noble County.

We are proud to announce our total donation collection from our Valentine dance last Friday. We were able to raise a total of $1,065. Big Brothers Big Sisters and Kate's Kart will benefit from this community effort. Thank you to all of the families that attended and donated, the staff that helped to make the dance possible, and our Club's Choice school fundraiser representative, Ryan Frankart, for donating his time, equipment and talents as the DJ for the dance! We appreciate all of you!
