It was really wonderful to see SO MANY families come to the 2024 Avery Open House event. Students were super excited to give tours of our great school. We took pictures of almost every family that attended and we are creating a family community bulletin board on our first floor.
Calling all 1st and 2nd graders! Get ready for an unforgettable adventure on the Avery Elementary stage with **Kitty Cat Capers**, our annual musical filled with singing, dancing, and acting.

Koresha Braxton has been appointed the Assistant Principal of Teaching, Learning and Culture at Avery! We had an 11 person interview committee for this position consisting of Avery educators, district leaders and Avery caregivers. The committee is so thrilled that Koresha is joining the Avery team. Koresha comes to us with over 20 years experience as an elementary school educator in the Boston and Cambridge Public Schools.

Thanks to a generous grant by the Dedham Education Foundation, all students will be shopping at our Book Fair where money is NOT accepted. High quality, popular books will be available to students to take home and kick off summer reading.
