How is the implementation timeline and onboarding Process?

At Avon Old Farms, dorm life is designed to help boys thrive academically, emotionally, and socially. Through structure, compassion, attention, and presence, students feel supported and equipped for success, fostering a sense of belonging and preparing them for future challenges.

Digital check-ins for student well-being offer convenience but have limitations, including data overload, misinterpretation of mood snapshots, and detachment from genuine human care. Effective alternatives include school pulse checks and fostering trusted relationships to ensure meaningful, actionable student support.
