Independent Study Contracts

Parents or legal guardians of students who will be away from school for reasons other than illness can request a short-term independent study agreement (not to exceed 15 days for the school year). Requests must be submitted within a reasonable timeframe prior to the first day of the independent study agreement.  All requests will be reviewed by the AVMS assistant principal for approval.  Please complete the following form to start this process: Independent Study Agreement Request.  Short-term independent study helps students to keep up with schoolwork, however, there is no substitute for teacher instruction and class interaction. Please schedule planned absences appropriately.
