Students represent AVID

Posted on May 14, 2009 by Staff

Students from Chapel Hill-Carrboro schools recently represented the Chapel Hill-Carrboro AVID Program at the first annual AVID Day at the General Assembly in Raleigh.

Chapel Hill High senior Lateshea Farrington, East Chapel Hill High senior Jonathan Smith, Carrboro High sophomore Ben Rose and Culbreth MIddle eighth-grader Arianna Jacobs met with members of the General Assembly to share their AVID experiences and raise awareness among legislators of the program’s effectiveness in making college available to all students.

AVID is a college-readiness system designed to increase the number of students who graduate and enroll in four-year colleges. Chapel Hill-Carrboro was the first school district in North Carolina to adopt AVID.
