Celebrating AVID’s Success Through Research

Third-party studies, evaluations, and published peer-reviewed research proves the effectiveness of AVID’s core beliefs.

The AVID College and Career Readiness Framework helps educators re-frame how they view students’ potential and re-frame how they create a learning ecosystem with existing talent, resources, and systems.

States and districts requiring confirmation of Tier 2 evidence of effectiveness by the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) for the use of ESSA funding can now add AVID to their list of eligible support providers! Click here to read the WWC’s official review.

• Under ESSA, districts and schools were called to use “evidence-based interventions” as the foundation for education programs and interventions to increase the impact of educational investments and ensure that interventions being implemented had proven effectiveness in leading to desired outcomes (e.g., improving student outcomes or achievement).
• Interventions applied under Title I, Section 1003 (School Improvement) are required to have strong, moderate, or promising evidence (Tiers 1–3) to support them. All other programs under Titles I–IV can rely on Tiers 1–4.
