Real Boys
R.E.A.L Learning.
We understand that inspiring future young leaders requires educating boys amid a changing landscape of education. We strive for balance in all things, and aim to teach our students how to think critically, not tell them what to think. To accomplish this, Avon employs a system of R.E.A.L. Learning. The tenants of R.E.A.L. Learning—Relational, Experiential, Active, and Lifelong— informs not only how we educate boys, but also why we educate boys.
