Career Day
Career Day
College and Career Readiness is a key focus of AVID. To provide students with a more personalized and immersive career exploration experience, AVID sponsored a school-wide Career Day. This event allowed students to select and visit two career sessions of their choice, where they engaged with professionals in small-group settings. Speakers shared insights about their careers, the education and skills required, and advice on getting started in the field. This hands-on opportunity empowered students to explore various career paths, ask questions, and gain valuable knowledge for their future. It was a meaningful and impactful experience for all!

To support students in exploring their postsecondary options, AVID students participated in a college fair experience where they visited and connected with colleges and universities from across Wisconsin. From technical colleges to large public universities and private institutions, students had the chance to speak directly with representatives, learn about admissions, majors, campus life, and more. This opportunity allowed students to discover the diverse college options available to them and begin thinking intentionally about their future educational goals.
