AVID offers a structured, academic support system that helps students develop the skills they need to be successful in college and beyond. The program is designed to help students who have the potential to succeed in college, but may not have access to the resources and support they need to get there.

AVID provides a range of services to help students succeed, including academic support, college readiness activities, and career exploration opportunities. The program offers a rigorous academic curriculum that includes writing, inquiry, collaboration, organization, and reading strategies. AVID students are also encouraged to take challenging courses, such as Advanced Placement (AP) classes, and to participate in extracurricular activities.

There are many reasons why kids should consider participating in AVID. First, the program provides students with the tools and support they need to succeed in college and beyond. AVID students learn study skills, time management, and critical thinking skills that will benefit them in any career path they choose. Second, AVID provides a sense of community and belonging for students. The program creates a supportive environment where students can work together, learn from one another, and build lasting friendships. Finally, AVID can be a pathway to college for students who may not have considered higher education as a possibility. AVID provides resources and support to help students navigate the college application process and prepare for success in college.
