In Avon Schools, it’s beginning to look — and sound — like the holiday season. Mark your calendars and join us at one or more of the band, orchestra, choir, dance, and theatre performances that are planned in the coming weeks at Avon Schools.

for the fourth time in the program's illustrious history, the Avon Marching Black & Gold lifted the Bands of America Grand Nationals Championship trophy. This victory is AMBG's 16th consecutive podium finish at the BOA Grand Nationals and the first victory since winning the competition three consecutive times in 2008, 2009, and 2010.

The Avon Marching Black & Gold are once again Indiana State Champions. They were crowned at the culmination of last weekend's Indiana State School Music Association Marching Band State Finals competition at Lucas Oil Stadium. This is AMBG's 16th State Championship.

Avon Community School Corporation ceremoniously turned the dirt to celebrate the start of construction for Avon Middle School West on Tuesday, September 26. Due to thoughtful financial planning, this construction project can be completed with no increase to taxpayers and without the use of referendum funds. Click below to view photos and videos and to read more.

AHS has been named a 2023 National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education based on overall academic performance. AHS is one of 353 schools in the nation to be recognized this year and one of only eight public schools in Indiana – the only public high school – to earn the honor. "I could not be prouder of the team we have built, the students who make our school such a special place, and the work we have been doing together at AHS," says AHS Principal Matt Shockley.

Thirty-eight Avon High School students have earned National Recognition from the College Board for earning a GPA of 3.5 or higher and outstanding marks on the PSAT/NMSQT®, PSAT™ 10, and/or AP® Exams. This recognition program is a proven way for Black, Indigenous, Latino, and rural area students - traditionally underrepresented - to stand out to colleges through the application process.

Avon High School commemorated the rapid progress of the AHS renovation and expansion project this week with a topping out ceremony. On Monday, the beam was hoisted up and welded into place at the highest point of what will be the new main entrance and administrative office block at the northwest corner of the school.
