AVID
(Advancement Via Individual Determination)
AVID's mission is to close the achievement gap by preparing all students to succeed in education and global society. Learn more about AVID.
AVID is a program that works to engage students that will be the first in their families to attend college. AVID supports students by developing skills such as time management, note-taking, study habits, problem-solving, and peer collaboration. Students participate in collaborative study groups supported by facilitators, who are trained to use questioning strategies to help students problem solve and gain confidence in their learning.
“42% of [AVID] alumni earned four-year degrees, compared with 11% of similar students...”
