What is the primary purpose of AVID’s “family night” events?

The primary purpose of AVID's “family night” events is to involve families in supporting academic and college aspirations. These events serve as a platform to educate parents and guardians about the AVID program, its goals, and how they can play an integral role in their child's educational journey. By fostering engagement between families and the school system, AVID aims to create a supportive community that encourages students to pursue higher education and develop the necessary skills to succeed academically.

This involvement helps to empower families by providing them with resources and information that they can use to motivate and guide their children. Ultimately, the focus is on building a partnership that enhances the overall academic experience for students, aligning family support with the educational objectives of AVID.

While celebrating achievements, recruiting new students, and conducting fundraising activities may occur during such events or related activities, they are not the primary focus of family nights in the context of AVID's mission.
