AVID

Currently, at Ensign, we have three seventh-grade classes and three eighth-grade AVID elective classes. 

We are committed to supporting all of our AVID students as they transition to intermediate school and challenging them to take rigorous classes.  In doing so, we believe our students will be better prepared for the demands of high school and college.  Additionally, all AVID students are required to complete 10 hours of community service within the school year.

Other than our counselors, teachers, and administrators, our AVID students are also supported by a committed site team made up of:

7th-grade AVID elective teachers:

• James Shinto, AVID teacher
• Gregg Savage, AVID teacher

8th-grade AVID elective teachers:

• Sarah Cohen, AVID teacher
• Joanna Stedman, AVID teacher
• Sarah Tucker, AVID teacher

AVID Tutors:

• Lauren Harrison
• Maili Buettner

AVID administrator:

• Kate Anderson

An AVID student is someone who...

• uses their planner daily.

• stays organized. 

• is helpful and a team player.

• does community service.

• studies for tests and quizzes.

• gets help when they need it. 

• attends field trips and activities to be part of the AVID community. 

• wants to go to college. 

• is honest, hard-working, and wants to succeed.
