👕 AVID Wednesday Spotlight: College Campus Visits! 🎓

This week, we are recognizing AVID scholars who are stepping beyond the classroom and onto real university campuses — experiencing college life firsthand.

These visits give our students a glimpse of what their futures can look like. They can learn about majors, scholarships, and campus traditions, and leave inspired to keep working toward their goals.

Don’t forget to show your support for college and career readiness across PCSSD by wearing an AVID shirt and sharing your past or preparing for your future. #PCSSDproud #AVID #ServeAll

🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day 🇺🇸

🪖 Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. Their sacrifice and dedication ensure the freedoms we enjoy every day. 🗽

This fall, a group of Sylvan Hills High School students joined Family & Consumer Sciences teacher Nicole Manwaring at the Educators Rising Fall Leadership Conference. As part of the event, students participated in a special service project — writing heartfelt messages in cards for veterans at the VA hospital.

📸 Students who took part in this project included:
Lilaina Harrell
Carson Owens
Bella Howell
Ke'Shawnna Davis
Ashton Parker

They remind us that gratitude can be shown in many ways — from a simple card to a heartfelt thank you. To all veterans in our community and beyond, we thank you for your service. ❤️💙🤍 #VeteransDay #PCSSDproud #GoBears

👕 Tomorrow is AVID Wednesday! 📣
This week, we’re spotlighting Mrs. Stephanie DeWitt’s kindergarten class at William Jefferson Clinton Elementary. Students recently completed an AVID jigsaw activity on story elements. Each group became “experts” on characters, setting, beginning, middle, or end, and then taught their classmates what they learned.

“It’s been wonderful watching them collaborate, think critically, and deepen their understanding of how stories work! Way to go, scholars,” Mrs. DeWitt shared.

Don’t forget to wear your AVID shirts tomorrow, celebrate student success, and keep building those college and career ready skills!
