Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
AVID is a college prep program that helps students in the AVID elective class successfully navigate their way TO and THROUGH a four-year university. The students meet together in the elective class for all four years of high school and they engage in content that helps build their college-ready skills as well as their college knowledge.
AVID's mission is to close the opportunity gap, so we serve students who might have one or more risk factors that would keep them from attending a four-year university.
In my classes, we have students who live in poverty, students who belong to ethnic and racial groups that are underrepresented in college, and students who will be the first in their family to attend college. They have all pushed themselves during their high school career to take more rigorous courses, like honors and AP courses, and engage in extra-curricular activities to develop both their academic and emotional preparation for college.
My Project
If you've known many school-aged children, you've probably seen at least one with the "paper bomb" backpack. This is where you open the backpack and it looks like a paper bomb has gone off inside! It is really hard to be on top of your academic game if you don't have a system of organization for your materials.
In AVID, we teach students organizational skills to help them manage, track, and store assignments and resources from school.
One of the two main tools we use to teach these skills is the 3-ring binder. In it, students can keep all of their materials from all of their classes, ensuring they never leave something they need behind in their locker or at home. It ensures everything they need is right at their fingertips!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
