The AVID program is geared toward preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society.  AVID incorporates strategies using Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization and Reading (WICOR). AVID will be the foundation for us to continue to provide high quality standards-based instruction as we prepare our students for success. As part of this new program, each student will need the following items:

PTO's Panther Proud program is a school wide program that fosters kindness and respect on campus and beyond. PTO and staff recognize students though weekly campus shout outs.  All students that receive shout outs are entered into a weekly raffle where one student from each grade level wins a raffle prize.  Also, all nominated students are featured in a weekly lunchtime slide show that highlights positive behaviors, student shout outs and positive messages!

If you would like to donate $10 gift cards to the Panther Proud Program, please drop them off at Student services in an envelope marked PTO - Panther Proud.
