AVID’s mission is to prepare students for college. AVID is not only a program, it is a lifestyle. It’s a student’s future. AVID takes a student on a journey to reach his/her goals in life. It is a program to help students develop good habits to succeed in college. As a result, AVID is a program to advance oneself to pursue his/her college dreams.

AVID, a national program that is over 30 years old, is offered in 6th, 7th, and 8th Grades at Sussman Middle School. In 6th Grade, the class is one semester long, in 7th and 8th the elective is for a full year. Students may take the class all three years if they like. Students attend field trips to colleges, work with college-age tutors twice a week in tutorials, practice math and English skills, and learn important organizational skills to help students do well in school.

Today we did our tutorials alone. I liked it because you can explore different ways that other people do math problems. The one thing that I didn’t like was that you didn’t have anyone to correct you I you got the answer wrong.

Did you finally get the correct answer? Will you remember it better because of the struggle?
