Hello all and welcome to the 8th grade year of AVID, you ...
Hello all and welcome to the 8th grade year of AVID, your final year before you enter high school AVID. This year we will have a theme that runs throughout the entire school year.
Theme:
“Purpose. What is your purpose in AVID? What is your purpose in education? Do everything in life with a purpose.” With this we will focus a lot on goal making and achieving. Looking at how other people have worked to achieve their goals and the sacrifices they have made. From this we will look at what we want to achieve and what we might have to sacrifice to get there.
We realize that all of you had made a sacrifice just being in AVID; you gave up your elective to be enrolled in this program. Therefore we want to make sure that you are getting everything you can out of the program.
AVID Elective Guidelines:
AVID is all about achieving college dreams, so with that in mind you must be able to show growth and a willingness to put forth great effort in your classes. Your goals for the class:
- to maintain a 3.0 GPA
- to put in the extra work when you are struggling in a class
- to maintain appropriate classroom behavior in all classes… always
- to demonstrate a desire to achieve all you can educationally
- to hold yourself accountable for what you do
Class Expectations:
1. Be respectful to all
2. Be on time
3. Stay Positive
4. Keep Hands and Feet to Yourself
5. Have Fun Learning
6. Follow the WSMS Behavior Policy at all times
Consequences:
1. Warning
2. Teacher/Student Conference - Loss of Participation Points
3. Phone Call Home
4. Teacher/Admin./Guardian/Student Conference
5. Removal From Class
Work:
1. Work must be done in blue or black ink or pencil; typed when needed
2. It should be done nice and neatly… no spiral edges
3. Turn in any work on time; seeming that there is not a lot of work that is given.
Notes:
1. Cornell Notes will be done in every core class. You will receive a separate schedule of dates for the notes.
I am so looking forward to this year with you all and helping you get another step closer to your goal… College.
