AVID - Jane Long Middle School

Jane Long Middle School is proud to be a National Demonstration School for the AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) Program... for the third year in a row!

The National AVID center reviewed the eleven essentials of AVID and saw how our campus implements this college preparatory program school - wide. Because of our exemplary status, our AVID team members have been asked to train other teachers at the national conference this summer.

"AVID is a fifth through twelfth - grade system to prepare students in the academic middle for four-year college eligibility.... The core component is the AVID elective, which supports students as they tackle the most rigorous classes. AVID's teaching strategies, curriculum, and trainings are used not only in the AVID elective class, but by subject-area teachers schoolwide." -- AVID website
