Congratulations Mr. Kitch and Mrs. Sunderland on being chosen as the winners of the $100 anonymous Abingdon-Avon Schools Foundation monthly donation.



Due to the timing for potentially dangerous weather conditions tomorrow afternoon (3/31/23), all D276 schools will dismiss 2 hours early. AAMS at 12:55, AAHS at 1:10, and AES/HGS at 1:20.

The Poppin' Popcorn Fundraiser is coming to an end this Friday, March 31. For each bag of Poppin' Popcorn sold, Hedding Grade School Activity Fund receives 50% of the proceeds. This money is used for student activities, such as field trips, assemblies, parties and incentives. The top 3 sellers will win a cash prize and the top selling class will earn a pizza party.

Ben Rudrud visited HGS today, and spoke with students about friendship. We also learned the power of words. Thank you, Ben, the students enjoyed your message.

Miss Knox County came to read to us today!



There will be no Tornado Time after school today for AES or HGS.

The Knox County Sheriff's Department contacted Hedding Grade School and Abingdon-Avon High School to lift the lockdown. Both schools will be resuming regular activity immediately.

Hedding Grade School and Abingdon-Avon High School were advised by the Abingdon Police Department to enter a soft lockdown. The lockdown will be in place until an individual involved in a car chase that took place in Abingdon is apprehended.

Parents/Guardians - Please take a few minutes to take the Illinois 5 Essentials Survey for the Abingdon-Avon School District. This survey gives our district important information about experiences in school, giving school leaders critical input to help develop school improvement plans. Your student has already taken part in this survey. We would like your input as well! All survey results are completely confidential!
To take the parent survey please visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/ and select the appropriate survey to begin. If asked to designate the county your district is located in, please choose Knox County (even if your student attends the Avon Campus).
Thank you for your participation!!


Due to the forecasted weather and road conditions from freezing rain, there will be no school for Abingdon-Avon today, February 16th. Please stay safe!
