Currently, Emily is in Grade 10 and has been immersed for the past 2 years in this program which has been developed by AVS and the staff. The Fusion Program allows students the flexibility to learn when and how they choose between online and face-to-face education. Emily enjoys coming to AVS to be in class with her friends and is a joy to teach. She’s positive and enthusi...astic about her learning. Emily’s favorite subject is English. Emily’s hobbies include playing piano and guitar and listening to music. She recently took up skiing. She loves animals of all kinds and would be happy with any pet that you can imagine.

Thank-you Emily for your contribution & smiles.......and allowing AVS to be a part of your journey!

Irelinn is in Grade 1 at AVS and is simply wonderful. She joined our school for Term 2 and learned to make Abbotsford Virtual School her home. It wasn't too long before she got to know the students in her class and was able to make new friends. She responds with kindness and gentleness to her fellow classmates and strives to make everyone feel valued. When we were still meeting in person in class, Irelinn led by example in following directions, striving to do her best in clas...swork assigned, and completing work without needing to be reminded to do so. Similarly, now that we are all working at home at a distance, Irelinn has kept up the good work! She is completing coursework in a regular manner and has even been doing extra projects, like creating a "Wonder Board" at home and doing fun projects such as showcasing her cake decorating skills or completing different art projects. Thanks for all your good work, Irelinn! See more
