Dear Aviano Elementary Families,
April continues to be a special time at Aviano Elementary as we celebrate the Month of the Military Child and honor our amazing students.
Our Month of the Military Child Parent Picnic was filled with smiles, laughter, and special moments shared between students and their families. Thank you to all the parents who joined us and made the day so meaningful. We truly loved seeing you shine alongside your child.
The celebration continues with more exciting events ahead. We look forward to welcoming parents to our upcoming Spring Fling and all students to our fun-filled Glow Party. Aviano Elementary is ready to glow. These events are a wonderful way to celebrate our students and build lasting memories together.
