The AVID Elective
Not only are students enrolled in their school's
toughest classes, such as challenge level courses, but also in
the AVID elective. For one period a day, they learn
organizational and study skills, work on critical thinking and asking
probing questions, get academic help from peers and college tutors, and
participate in enrichment and motivational activities that make college
seem attainable. Their self-images improve, and they become academically successful leaders and role models for other students.
