Why I’m an Emcee
As an Emcee at AVID Summer Institute, I am excited about the energy in the room and the opportunity to share the connection between the powerful student and educator voices and the impact we as educators can make as an AVID community back at our home campuses. Relational capacity is the fuel that connects students to both teachers and their peers. General Session is full of moments curated by so many impactful memories that drive us to create greatness for all we encounter.
