Hello and welcome to the AVID class! I look forward to working with you as you prepare yourself for academic success. The AVID program is helping direct the pathway toward college for San Marcos Middle School students. Our objectives are to provide support for middle school students and to prepare them for entrance into high school and college, to motivate students to seek a college education, and to increase students’ awareness level of career choices.  The mission of AVID is to close the opportunity gap by preparing all students for college/career readiness and success in a global society.
