See AVID in Action

Join us at a free AVID Showcase!

AVID Showcases provide an in-person opportunity for educators to see an AVID implementation, share best practices, and learn more about AVID hands-on.

The Showcase experience includes classroom observations and a chance to speak with experienced AVID teachers, administrators, and students.

Participants will…

  • See and learn about the key components of an AVID implementation
  • Hear about AVID as a schoolwide catalyst for improvement
  • Discuss implementing AVID with school administrators and teachers
  • Observe AVID strategies in AVID classrooms across grade levels: K-12, elementary, and middle school.
  • See how WICOR strategies impact instruction across content areas at the middle- and high-school levels.
  • Discover how the AVID Elective is pivotal in closing the opportunity gap.
  • Gain insight from a Q & A session with AVID educators and a student panel immediately following the Showcase.
