Success for Black Boys

Have you signed up for Summer Institute yet? If you’re looking for an update on AVID’s African American Male Initiative (AAMI), then Dallas 2 is the place to go.

A pre-session on June 28, 2010 will feature a panel presentation of six AAMI schools from five states. Come and learn as they share how they have successfully used AVID’s system to raise African American male achievement.
AVID representatives will discuss data and updates on what we’ve done and how we’re moving forward in our effort to ensure more African American males enroll and succeed in college. We will also explain how we are using Culturally Relevant Teaching (CRT) strategies in schools and in methodologies for professional development to raise high school graduation rates/college going rates.
