Thank you, Avery community! You make a huge difference!

We’re a little light on snacks for Snack Attack. So if anyone feels inclined to bring some snacks when they come, it wouldn’t go to waste.

October 3rd is finally here: the day we’ve all been waiting for.

Not because it’s “Mean Girls Day” or “Diary of a Showgirl”Day or whatever… but because it’s FALL FEST, obviously.
6-9 @ Avery!

It's crunch time and we're getting desperate. If you're able, please sign up and give us an hour of time to make the best night at Avery even better!

Our Fall Fest quest has begun… but some games are still in peril! 🏰 We need heroes to step up: volunteer, sell raffle tickets, or bring snacks for Snack Attack! Every hero counts!

Justin Miller of Fireside Financial is our generous sponsor for this year's Haunted Hallway. He's got two 5th graders so he'll probably be spending a lot of time in the hallway anyway!

Justin and Amy Miller have been active at Avery for many, many years and this will be officially their last year for their own kids. However their Grandson Kobe may be looking at becoming a future All-Star. Their twins, Kian and Saige, are current 5th graders at Avery, and their older girls, Ayla and Kinley (Freshman at Mizzou and a Junior at Notre Dame high school) are also Avery alums. Once an All-Star, Always an All-Star!

Justin and Amy have been longtime supporters of our school and community and we are so grateful to have Fireside Financial as our sponsor for this year’s Haunted Hallway.

This year the food court is being sponsored by Grimes Consulting.

Grimes Consulting is locally owned and specializes in providing professional services to support all phases of development projects. They also provide services for residential property surveys and stormwater plans. Founded in 1996, their St. Louis office is able to provide national coverage to a diverse client base. Jim Whisler is Vice President of Grimes Consulting and partnered the business in 2012.

You might recognize the Whisler name, because his wife Amy is one of our Fall Festival Chairs. The Whislers have been involved with Fall Festival for many years and currently have Anna (8th grade, Hixson) and Will (4th grade, Avery). The Whislers have built many Fall Festival games over the years and and think Fall Festival is the best event of the year! Thanks to Grimes Consulting for partnering with Avery to keep Fall Festival going.

This year the Teacher Raffle is sponsored by the Webster Groves LIONS club.

The Webster Groves LIONS Club helps those in need internationally, nationally, and locally. They donate money and purchase items for local organizations, including Webster/Rock Hill Ministries, Nurses for Newborns, Camp Wyman, Special Olympics, and SLOCA. They routinely help the Webster Groves Fire Department and the Webster Groves Police Department with much needed items.
They host annual fun events like the Easter Egg Hunt, the Firehouse Safety Day hotdog giveaway, the Peace Poster Contest (Hixson and Rogers Middle Schools) and host the WG Football team, coaches, and cheerleaders at the Annual Turkey Day Luncheon. They BBQ for Avery's Back To School Picnic and Bristol's Blacktop events and during the holidays, for a minimal charge, you can come eat pancakes and meet Santa.

Their money is raised primarily through the annual July 4th Carnival, 3 smaller BBQs, and fundraising events like the upcoming Trivia Extravaganza in October, and of course any donations to the tip jar at these events.

Let's give a huge Avery Shout out to the Webster Groves LIONS club!
