Students commit to completing the University of California “a-g” requirements, repeating in summer school any class in which they earn a “d” or an “f”, and taking an AVID class each term in combination with a core English class. The elective class has college tutors who assist students in other classes, teaches note-taking, organization skills, time management, test-taking strategies, writing across the curriculum and the inquiry method. Additionally, students have guest speakers, research projects and take field trips to colleges. NOTE: The AVID coordinator considers placement based on application and interview. Student should have a GPA between 2.0 – 3.0 average or above average standardized test scores. Math achievement and a writing sample will also be considered.
