We had the honor of celebrating our AVID Student Excellence Award for February! 🌟

One of the best parts? Hearing the incredible things students say about each other! Their kindness, leadership, and support truly shine. It’s a powerful reminder of the positive community we are building together.

Be sure to ask your student what their peers shared—it’s something you won’t want to miss! 💬

Congratulations to this month’s winner! 👏

AVID 6 spent some time today facing off binders versus planners. Activities like this give students time to think, write, reflect, and then defend their claim based on evidence. It also gives students time to collaborate in an authentic way. We had a lot of fun!

Team building this week, we kept up one of our favorite “family traditions," Love Letters to AVID! 💌

Students wrote sweet, funny, and honest notes about their relationship with AVID. Some were full of appreciation… and a few decided to write dramatic break-up letters instead (apparently AVID can be a little demanding 😅).

Either way, the giggles were real and the intention and purpose they poured into their letters made my AVID heart happy!

AVID 7 had a great adventure today to the BSC Campus! We learned a ton while touring the campus and playing BINGO! We took the opportunity to imagine our future and what it could look like. BSC is always a very gracious host!

We have been busy in AVID!

AVID 6 started our Body Biographies! This is a great way to get to know each! Please ask your AVID Scholar about all the laughs along the way!

AVID 7 is preparing for our Campus Visit to BSC tomorrow. These trips are very memorable and we learn a lot! We also miss school, so we worked on some homework today! With the skills learned in AVID, students naturally plan ahead, make lists, and prioritize tasks!

AVID 8 started our college research project today. While researching colleges the students dream big and make connections to their futures!

Thanks for sharing your children with me each day - they are truly a gift to me!
