As you can see, the last update was at the end of Week 10. According to my Google Analytics data, virtually no one was checking the AVID page, and it was taking more time and effort than it was worth to continue --- so I discontinued posting here and switched to a running list on the whiteboard.

In the interest of helping certain students keep up with assignments, I am resuming posting weekly updates. Please email if there is any content you need that has not been posted here.Thanks for understanding.

    Mr. Garnet's class

    Here is where you can find all the assignments and information we discuss in class. Plan to visit this site at least once a week, if not daily!

    Goals of AVID

    • Help you succeed in your academic classes in high school, so you can get into a four-year university
    • Help you prepare for the academic, emotional, and mental challenges of attending a four-year university
    • Help you acquire skills, strategies, mindset, and peer support to achieve your personal and academic goals

    STANDING DUE DATES: 
    • TRFs are due when you walk in the door, every week on Tutorial days.  
    • Cornell Notes are checked every other week; take notes in your other academic classes, and bring them in to be checked.
    • Some assignments will be collected in class, the same day, and will be announced as such when assigned.
    • Other assignments are due one week from the date assigned unless otherwise noted here or on whiteboard in class.
