A.V.I.D.
AVID is a nationally recognized program designed to help bright, motivated students in their completion of college-prep coursework while in high school, in hopes that these students will be able to gain acceptance to 4-year colleges or universities directly from high school.
It is a bridge to get students to college. Guest speakers and field trips to local universities! AVID students are typically bright, average or above-average students with no chronic disciplinary or attendance problems.
Students in this program have a B or C average and are not discipline issues. They want to be successful! AVID students typically need assistance with organizational, planning and study skills in order to reach their full potentials. Students may be among the first in their families to attend college, although this is certainly not always the case!
Students enrolled in this class will receive elective credits and would be in this class in lieu of CCP or Geography. If you are interested in participating in AVID or have further questions regarding this program please contact Mr. Briggs, AVID Coordinator cwbriggs@capousd.org.
