Avonworth is a great school that provides ample support and works with each individual student to assist them in aquiring a superb education.

It was our experience that the teachers in the middle school are difficult to deal with when it comes to dealing with student issues. They seem too interested in blaming others instead of being part of the solution. They were fine with average student performance when we knew that our child was capable of much more. We pulled our child out of the middle school in complete frustration with lack of effort and caring by the staff and administration despite repeated efforts to help our child. Our child is in private school setting and has exhibited a complete turnaround since leaving Avonworth and is now a National Honor Society member and Honor Roll student.

I have several children enrolled in the district, and I can't say enough positive things about their experiences. They have been helped with emotional issues by their teachers and counselors, given opportunities to excel from GATE instruction as well as regular classroom instruction, regularly encouraged by enthusiastic teachers and principals who expose them to different programs and new ways of instruction, while keeping learning fun and exciting with special programs and fun themed days, etc. I have worked in many of the school districts in the surrounding area, and chose the Avonworth area to live primarily because of it's school district.
