According to Aesop: “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” Kindness is not a finite resource; there is not a limited supply that you have to guard closely for fear of running out. Give your kindness to everyone. One way to be kind is to recognize that people’s differences are not something to make fun of. Let’s celebrate kindness tomorrow by intentionally being different! Wear your wackiest clothes, socks, hats, hair…everything. Be kind tomorrow by being wacky!

What is AVID?

AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) is a program designed for students who require academic and organizational assistance to meet their goal of attending and graduating from a four-year university.  AVID students have the potential to succeed in Honors and Advanced Placement courses in high school, but often need academic support to handle the rigorous coursework. 

The AVID class, held within the regular school day, provides support, academic monitoring, and peer and college tutoring.  AVID's mission is to close the achievement gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society.
