Did everyone enjoy the Super Bowl last weekend? AVID 11 students used it as a way to research colleges! They were each assigned a player and tasked with learning about the college they went to. Way to go AVID 11 all stars!

Tutorials are an inquiry based, collaborative way in which our AVID students push themselves to dive deeper into their coursework. Today we celebrate some of the Tutorial MVPs from Mrs. Walter’s AVID classes! Keep up the great work!
