AVID Program
Advancement Via Individual Determination
Advancement Via Individual Determination, also known as AVID, is a college readiness program designed to help students develop the skills they need to be successful in college. For students, the program places special emphasis on growing writing, critical thinking, teamwork, organization, and reading skills. For educators, AVID focuses on relational capacity with students and upholding high expectations for all students.
All Greenville Early College High School students are enrolled in AVID as an elective course to help prepare them for the rigor of taking college courses during high school as well as after high school. AVID strategies and organizational techniques are also utilized in all Greenville Early College High School classes.
Students use portable whiteboards that were purchased with a GISD GEEF Grant in AVID 4. These students were using peer tutoring AVID strategies to practice their Calculus III work.
Students practice interview skills in their senior AVID class.
