Career Project

The last big project for AVID students is the Career Project. The information sheet can be downloaded by clicking here to go to Mrs. Neubert's website. Download the pdf for Career Project and Career Project Organizer.

For this project, students need to pick two careers they are interested in. They need to fill out the Career Project Organizer by the specific due dates. If the organizer is filled out on time, students will receive a stamp for each part. (There should be a total of FIVE stamps on the organizer.) They will write an essay on both careers, create a "layered-look" book, and present their books to the class.

Important due dates are:

Fun Friday Skits

For team building on Friday, the 9th grade AVID students broke into groups of three to four students. They then created skits about specific "random" things that three students picked in each class. In period 1, students had to create skits that had something about a cow, a dog, and a hippie. In period 3, students had to include something about balloons, shoes, and rollie pollies.

No pictures were taken of the skits, but all skits were very entertaining and fun.

The Final College Presentations

The last groups in the 9th grade AVID class presented their colleges today. All of the presentations were excellent!
