AVID Data

 

This is a data driven world. Since 1980 when AVID began, data has been used to demonstrate the "power" and success of the AVID program. The AVID program is closely tied to data collection and its use. Data is constant, reliable and pervasive to teachers, students, parents and the community at large. View or download the AVID Fact Sheet PDF
     
AVID site teams are asked to review their data at site team meetings so they can make decisions about their school, the direction of the AVID program and how AVID strategies can support school-wide goals.
     
The analysis of data also addresses the access to courses that prepare middle level students adequately for rigorous courses that is essential to the student's ability to graduate and gain acceptance to a four-year college or university.
     
Reflective key questions that guide site team discussion include:
       
What does this data tell us about our school?  
       
What will it take to increase access to rigorous, high-level curriculum that ensures eligibility and success in competitive four-year universities?  
       
How are we addressing the disaggregated populations at our school?  
       
What are the implications for the AVID program and the AVID site team?  
       
Reviewing the data, what are the implications for vertical teaming between high school and middle level programs?  
       
What can we learn about our students who are enrolled at CSU and UC systems?
