On Thursday night, Avon Park High School held their annual Night of Stars parent night. All of our academic and vocational programs had displays to teach parents, current students, and upcoming 9th graders about their classes. AFJROTC, band, and chorus held performances throughout the night, and there was an art exhibit. Various clubs and athletics also were on site to encourage students to explore extracurricular options at APHS. Thank you to everyone who came out to help us celebrate and learn! Thank you also to the Avon Park Champions Club for preparing meals for fundraising and thank you to Mid Florida Credit Union for popping popcorn for all of our guests.
