Advancement Via Individual Determination

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.  

A bridge to get students to college AVID students listen to guest speakers and go on 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 don't have discipline issues. AVID students typically need assistance with organizational, planning and study skills in order to reach their full potential. 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. These students want to be successful!  If you are interested in participating in AVID or have further questions regarding this program please contact: Miss Villalba, AVID Coordinator fmvillalba@capousd.org
