AVID’s mission is to close the opportunity gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society.
Academic Language and Literacy Architects aims to provide educators with strategies to implement language-building routines and scaffolded instruction while supporting students in using their voice, culture, identity, and language to access and produce rigorous and language-rich content. Educators will ultimately create learning opportunities that increase access to higher-level thinking functions and honor students’ experiences and languages.
