Great question! Here at AVID Club, we understand the importance of giving back. Students team up with community-bettering organizations to promote their message and encourage donations towards the cause. This helps families' well-being, benefits the students' sense of appreciation, and supports college applications. Services we team up with are:
Toys For Tots
San Diego Food Bank
& More to Come
More information provided in the "What AVID Club Does" section.

AVID Club loves creative and enthusiastic individuals who are willing to put in the work. Being in a club also requires an extra level of mental and physical preparedness alongside organization skills. Therefore, having a GPA of less than 2.0 shows that you are not ready and will be asked to leave. We want to secure your success in your main classes first before given an extra job. Secondly, if you do not stay on task, you risk the privilege of being AVID Club.
