A.V.I.D.

Advancement Via Individual Determination

 

AVID is a nationally recognized program designed to support under-represented but highly motivated students for college and career readiness. The focus remains the completion of A-G requirements and rigorous coursework during high school to gain acceptance to a 4-year college or university. 

 

AVID students are typically average or above-average students with no chronic disciplinary or attendance problems. Students generally enter the program with a minimum GPA of 2.0 or higher. AVID students receive instructional strategies that focus on writing, inquiry, collaboration, organization, and reading skills. Students may be among the first in their families to attend college.

  

Students enrolled in this class will receive elective credits. 


If you are interested in participating in AVID or have any further questions regarding this program, please feel free to contact me or the SJHS counseling team.
