AVID student: ‘Mrs. K is not only my teacher, she is also a friend when I need comfort, an advisor when I am unsure, and someone who quickly transitioned from my crazy English teacher to my slightly crazy AVID mother, to someone I know I will have in my life forever.‘#AVIDSI2019
AVID Teacher: It is now common for my students to shatter all expectations. That is the power of AVID: when done right, it helps everyone--teachers and students alike--see that truly, they are limitless. #AVIDSI2019
AVID teacher: ‘I realized I couldn’t put limits on my abilities, either. I had to stop telling myself what I couldn’t do and start convincing myself--and my students--of what we could do.’ #AVIDSI2019
AVID Educator: ‘As teachers we are light posts on a dark road. Each light gets students to the next, and so on. Without us to help guide them, many students would not be able to navigate this road. It is imperative that we leave no one in the dark!’ #AVIDSI2019
AVID educator: ‘We as educators must be ready to evolve to meet the needs of our students. We have the ability to change their lives, let’s don’t waste it.’ #AVIDSI2019
AVID student: ‘AVID has taught me that even I, a child of war, can dream too.Because of AVID, today I am college bound, I feel great, I feel passionate,
and I feel confident.#AVIDSI2019
AVID student: ‘It isn’t just about good grades and how to be successful in college. It is much more than that. AVID is my home now… my new family. It has taught me mental toughness and a growth mindset.’ #AVIDSI2019
AVID educator: ‘I quickly realized that the AVID students who did not speak English as their first language were just as gifted and talented as the GATE students.’ They were future doctors, future engineers, future lawyers and even future teachers. #AVIDSI2019
AVID educator: ‘Little did I know the significant impact AVID would make in my teaching career and life. It was humbling to be considered a mentor, a big brother and a confidant to the AVID students. ‘ #AVIDSI2019
