AVID UPDATE:  This year is the first that HDMS has established AVID Classes at all three grade levels.  With our Sixth Grade Wheel course, Martin is helping to set the foundation for the future Elective classes with all sixth graders, as well as taking the next step with the AVID 7 elective.  As we look forward, developing our Systems and a Culture around the AVID philosophy and structures have already begun. We are looking for ways that we can continue this work, and elevate our rigor and expectations so that all students, whether they are part of the Elective or not, gain the skills and mindset for success at the next levels.  In taking the pulse of our building to see where we are in our AVID journey, and where we would like  to continue with effective, meaningful PD and staff involvement please complete the survey below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
