Aveson is a tuition-free public school of choice with a unique instructional program. It is very important that prospective parents become familiar with our model in order to decide if it meets the needs of their child and family. We encourage you to take every opportunity to learn more about our program prior to submitting an application for enrollment. We invite you to read our charter petition, speak to current families, and attend an information session. Making an informed decision is the first step to ensuring a great educational experience for your child.
