AVID helps prepare students for college by teaching them organization, writing, reading, and communication skills. Students have in-class tutorials with college tutors two times a week so they can work with their classmates to gain a deeper understanding of their school work.
Prerequisites:
Good attendance, good behavior, passing all classes, desire to go to college, positive attitude, motivation.
Students must apply, interview, and be accepted into the AVID program. Only incoming 8th grade, 9th grade, and 10th grade students can apply to be in AVID. The class is designed to support first-generation college, low-income, or students who are facing other road blocks towards getting to college. However, any student may apply! Our AVID classes are filled with students from all walks of life. More information can be found at avid.org.
Certification Possibilities:
If students stay in AVID through high school, and meet all GPA and community service requirements, they can graduate with an "AVID Graduate" certificate, as well as wear AVID cords at graduation.
