Recently, the Ohio Township Fire Marshall visited the school and explained that Avonworth HS/MS was out of compliance with our local Fire Lane laws.

Polite or Rude? How AHS kids react when someone is in need
All of the movies, books, and television shows that have anything to do with high school show that upperclassmen are utterly feared by the lower grades. In some cases this is true, but most schools have come a long way when it comes to grade-to-grade relations. At least, as far as we know….

That Hat Is A Legend: Iconic Clothing Around AHS
The Avonworth chorus hallway, a place that’s typically relatively quiet and calm, was flooded with shouts as Senior Alex “Skippy” Domencic chased a pair of girls down the hallway in pursuit of his stolen hat. “That hat is a legend,” Domencic managed to say when he slowed to a stop. The group was in chorus…

Pirates Disappointing But Not Worth Jumping Ship
As the Pirates 2016 season is winding down, finishing over .500 isn’t likely, which for me at least is a disappointment. Even though they made the playoffs and had strong regular season records the past 3 years, they went into this season with another legitimate shot to make the playoffs. With the pitching rotation and batting…

This growth reflects the overall size of the high school, with not only…
