Showcase Focus:
United in WICOR: From Merged Schools to AVID Excellence - Experience how our Yetis have transformed a school merger into a unified K-5 culture where staff, families, and community unite around college and career readiness. Across every grade level, scaffolded WICOR strategies are seamlessly woven directly into daily core curricula. Through classroom visits, student binders, and visual displays, you will witness systemic AVID implementation driving equity, rigor, and continuous growth.
Does “All Students” Mean “All Students” at Your School or District?
We invite superintendents, district leadership, principals, and teacher leaders to see how schools are implementing AVID nationwide to:
Ensure student success by incorporating WICOR® (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, and Reading) strategies throughout all classrooms to support increased rigor schoolwide.
Provide ongoing professional learning for staff and site-based coaching.
Build collective educator agency to transform culture in support of all students.
Align the K–12 college and career readiness journey.
