Washington County is celebrating AVID Day on Friday, September 12, joining schools nationwide in recognizing the power of education, the dedication of our teachers, and the resilience of our students.
Through our ten-year partnership with AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination), we’ve seen incredible results—from increased graduation rates to more students enrolling in honors, dual enrollment, and AP courses. AVID equips students with the skills they need to succeed in school and beyond, including critical thinking, collaboration, and leadership.
This year, we’re celebrating by sharing our AVID stories online. We invite students, educators, alumni, and families to join us by completing the phrase, “Because of AVID, I…” and posting it on social media with the hashtag #MyAVIDWhy.
Let’s come together to highlight the lasting impact AVID has on our community—one story at a time.
