Welcome to AVID at Washington Technology Magnet
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 a 4 quarter elective class. 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 weekly 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!
