AVID Teachers are Here to Stay!
AVID-trained educators accelerate the development of relational capacity among staff and students, resulting in:
- Higher levels of collective educator agency
- Higher academic achievement and student agency
- Thriving learning environments schoolwide
Research conducted in Arizona and Oregon showed that AVID teachers had a higher overall retention rate than non-AVID teachers. This research also showed an even higher retention rate for AVID teachers new to teaching versus non-AVID teachers who were new to teaching.
