Hooray! College Wednesdays are back!
Please remember that only COLLEGE t-shirts are appropriate with jeans on Wednesdays...thanks for all of your support as we continue to spread knowledge about college!
Let's give an AVID "blue" on GO...1...2...3...Go!
Ms. Booker also has a station in her classroom where students are invited to get a writing utensil if needed (Now that's showing PRIDE)!

1st Period is in the lead!
How do you build a positive culture?
WICORized Wednesdays are coming soon...
Door Competition Winners! I would just like to send a huge shout out to everyone who decorated your doors. One of our AVID standards requires that we have a college-going atmosphere to promote a positive school culture. Because of your efforts, we will continue to shine! Look out for an email from me (Mrs. Cain) for your prize for your participation!
There is still time left if you did not get a chance to decorate your doors...I look forward to seeing more great ideas!
Some great door ideas...
