Western Heights Club – Youth of the Month – April 2021

Meet Ava

“It’s nice that I get to come to the Club every day after school,” says 8 year-old Ava, a member of Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley – Western Heights Club. “It’s even better when I get to come to the Club all day when my school switches to virtual learning, because the Club helps me to focus on my schoolwork those days.

When I’m in virtual class, sometimes my teacher will give us some hard work, so it’s really nice that the staff at the Club are right there to help with any questions I have about schoolwork – especially math. Right now we’re studying mass and volume and I learned that mass is the amount of stuff an object contains and volume is how much space it takes up!”
