WE ARE AVID!
Our South Ocala staff encourages teachers and reinforces academic behaviors such as organization, note-taking strategies, collaboration and self-advocacy with our 5th grade students. Our AVID scholars develop the academic habits they will need to be successful in middle school, high school, and onward whether that be a trade school, military or college.
We encourage our 5th grade students to think about their college and career plans for their future. College and careers are common topics here at South Ocala to prepare our students for their future for a life-long learning success.
We are so proud to be one of the few elementary schools in our district that have joined the AVID community! We started the program with our 5th grade students this school year and our goal is to become AVID school-wide by 2025. We are inspired by how AVID is guiding our students to become more independent and successful.
