The last day to submit AVID applications for the 2025-2026 school year is March 28!!.
Students can learn valuable skills that help them prepare for high school and beyond with a class called Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID). AVID is an elective class that meets in the regular schedule of the school year. Students focus on writing, inquiry, collaboration, organization and reading.
AVID students visit college campuses, refine academic skills, and engage in high-level thinking and discussion. Students also develop positive peer relationships, learn to advocate for themselves, and improve self-awareness.
Students are given support to be successful in rigorous courses. Tutors are in AVID class twice per week to facilitate collaborative learning groups that help students better understand course work and develop higher-level thinking skills.
Thank you for your interest in AVID!
