Tutor Job Description​


Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) is a college readiness system designed to increase the number of students who enroll in and persist in four-year colleges. AVID is designed to specifically help the least served students in the academic middle.

The Green Bay Public Schools offers AVID for students in grades 6-12 at Washington Middle School, West High School and East High School.


What is AVID?

  • An elective class that uses an established curriculum made up of rigorous standards, WIC-R (writing, inquiry, collaboration, reading) strategies, Cornell note-taking, study skills, tutorials led by trained college tutors, and Socratic Seminars.
  • A structured, college preparatory system working directly with schools and districts.
  • A direct support structure for first-generation college students, grades 4-12.
  • A schoolwide approach to curriculum and rigor adopted by nearly 4,000 schools in 45 states and 15 countries.
  • A professional development program providing training around the world.
