THE PANTHER PRESS
AVID family night a hit!
On Feb. 7, we hosted a family night focusing on AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination.)
The academic support program, for grades 7-12th, helps prepare students for college and more. The event was open to AUSD students and their families to learn more about the specifics and advantages of AVID with several high schoolers sharing their positive experiences.
Thank you to all who joined in the conversation. For more information, email NatashaThomas@antiochschools.net
