May 1, 2025, 3:43 p.m. - UPDATE

Allegheny Valley Families:
We are happy to announce that Acmetonia Elementary School has regained power. Therefore, tomorrow - Friday, May 2 - the District will return to a regular schedule for both buildings. However, we understand that parts of the District remain without power at their homes and businesses. We do hope to see students at school, where they can get breakfast and lunch, charge their devices (and their phones), and spend the day with friends and teachers. Flexibility for all continues to be the key at this time, and the schools are ready and willing to work with our families and provide support where needed. We will also be working with families who need some adaptations at this time. Administrators will continue to monitor the ongoing situation, but encourage you to reach out if you should have questions or concerns. Staff is responding to email and the phone lines are working. We appreciate your patience as we weather this storm together. The District looks forward to seeing everyone in their classrooms tomorrow!

School Police Officers

The Allegheny Valley School District employs two 10-month, full-time School Police Officers.

The officers help to keep our schools safe by coordinating and enforcing school security and law enforcement issues. Additionally, the School Police Officers help to educate students throughout the year on a variety of age appropriate topics, such as underage drinking, retail theft, safe driving education and substance abuse.

School Police Officers are not in our schools solely to react to situations, but they are equally there to be proactive, diminishing the need to be reactive. The officers are present in both schools, working with students to build positive relationships and helping to identify and curtail problems before they can escalate.

School Police Officers help to keep the lines of communication open between students, families, administration and law enforcement. They also assist the District with refining and enhancing its safety procedures.
