Mission Statement

The mission of AVID is to ensure that ALL students, and most especially the least served students who are in the middle:

will succeed in rigorous curriculum,
will complete a college preparatory path,
will enter mainstream activities of the school,
will increase their enrollment in four-year
colleges, and
will become educated and responsible participants
and leaders in a democratic society.

AVID Core Beliefs

We believe:

that we exist first and foremost to serve our students;
that all students should have the opportunity to go to college;
that all students will achieve at the highest levels if given rigor and support;
in acceleration over remediation;
in raising expectations over selling our students short;
in lifelong learning and in the development of teachers that AVID prepares students for participation in our democracy, which presupposes an informed citizenry;
that any obstacle can be overcome with hard work, individual determination, and support; in exposing students to cultural opportunities and broader horizons;
in being held accountable—to ourselves and to each other;
that we can change the course of history…one student, one teacher at a time.
