Different access points. Targeted support. A shared destination.
A System for Success
Multilingual learner success is not a single program decision. It is a system design decision. Every student brings a different starting point—different strengths, different needs, and different moments where support matters most. Too often, those supports exist in isolation.
The Advancing Multilingual Learner Suite (AML Suite) brings them together through flexible entry points, targeted support, and a shared goal: helping multilingual learners build the academic language, confidence, and readiness they need to thrive.
Through AVID Emerge Elementary, AVID Emerge Secondary, AVID Excel, and ELD Summer Bridge, schools and districts can build a connected approach to language development that supports students at critical points in their journey. From everyday instruction to year-long curriculum pathways and extended learning opportunities, the AML Suite helps create continuity rather than disconnected interventions. This is how schools move beyond fragmented supports toward a shared pathway that leads to redesignation, rigorous learning, and long-term success.

Many schools begin with one entry point and expand over time to layer supports that strengthen language development across the school year, grade levels, and instructional settings.
Research & Evidence
Strong systems are built on evidence as well as experience.
AVID partners with independent researchers and conducts ongoing internal studies to better understand how multilingual learner support impacts student growth, language development, and long-term academic success.
Across the Advancing Multilingual Learner Suite, this research helps illuminate how aligned instruction, targeted pathways, and sustained support contribute to outcomes like redesignation, increased access to rigorous coursework, and college and career readiness.
As new studies emerge, AVID continues to build and share evidence that informs practice, strengthens implementation, and supports more effective decision-making for schools and districts.
