What is AVID?
AVID, Advancement Via Individual Determination, is a schoolwide transformation
effort focused on leadership, systems, instruction, and culture, and is designed to
increase the number of students who enroll and succeed in higher education and
in their lives beyond high school.
AVID-trained educators teach students academic and social skills to help them
develop the habits and behaviors needed to succeed in rigorous curriculum. The
AVID College Readiness System is a catalyst for developing a school culture that
closes the achievement, expectation, and opportunity gaps many students face,
and it prepares all students for success in a global society.
