Back on September 22, 2016 you were given a copy of this year's Syllabus to take home, read, and return by the signed pages at the back, due by the end of the month. If you have not turned this in, it is now overdue -- and very few people have turned this in!!!! Please do so ASAP. A copy is posted below for your convenience.

NOTE: Please only turn in the last page with the signatures and contact info on one side, and initials on the other. The rest belongs in the AVID section of your binder.

PARENTS: If you missed Back to School Night, my PowerPoint presentation is below, and the WICOR explanation. Highlights include:

You can help your kids by making sure they complete a Tutorial Request Form (TRF) on Mon/Wed, due every Tues/Thurs
They will get the most out of their Tutorial sessions twice a week if they come prepared
Tutors will also be teaching a monthly ACT/SAT test prep class the 1st Monday of each month, free, presented during class\
When students get their quarterly mentor meeting with myself or a tutor, you will be getting personalized action plans emailed to you, so you can help your child follow up on improvement goals

I'm happy to have a one-on-one conversation with you about your child if you email me to schedule a meeting or phone call.

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.
