Making College Dreams a Reality

Middle schoolers! Interested in AVID? Apply today! Applications are due April 1.

The Kenwood AVID program helps its students reach their full academic and social potential. The program will push its students to take the tough classes we know that college admissions officers are looking for, but are there to teach them the strategies to succeed in the most rigorous courses. We help our students with the following:

  • Writing Skills
  • Inquiry and Higher Level Thinking Skills
  • Collaboration
  • Organization
  • Reading
  • College Level Note Taking
  • Time Management
  • Study Skills
  • College and Career Planning
  • Financial Aid 

We work on all of these skills in a supportive environment where we help our students overcome the many obstacles that school and life can throw at a high school student.

It won’t be easy. If it were easy, everyone would go to college. If a student is willing to work, AVID will get that student to college. How do we know?

  • 100% graduated on time
  • 100% were accepted to 4 year Universities
