Summary:
|
AVID is a school-wide College and Career Readiness System that prepares students for life after high school. Springfield School District 186 utilizes AVID’s College and Career Readiness Framework to ensure all K-12 students are provided with a foundation of rigorous academic preparedness, student agency, and opportunity knowledge.
The AVID Elective class, housed in the middle and high schools, instills skills and behaviors for academic success, develops strong organizational skills, provides intense support with tutorials and strong student/teacher relationships, creates a positive peer group for students, and develops a sense of hope for personal achievement gained through hard work and determination. The AVID Elective class structure allows its students to experience AP and Dual Credit courses with the support necessary for success.
During the 2024-2025 school year, AVID will be provided in twenty-three elementary schools (including Ball-Charter), seven middle schools (including Ball-Charter), three high schools, and alternative programs.
