Strategic Leadership for College and Career Readiness 2: Instruction (2024–25)
The Strategic Leadership for College and Career Readiness 2: Instruction Community of Practice engages teams of three or more members of district- and school-based leadership. This Community of Practice reinforces the connection between the AVID Schoolwide Domains of Leadership, Systems, and Culture to move schools forward in the Domain of Instruction. This training provides a framework for establishing a clear site-based definition of rigor and deepening participants’ understanding of the intentional use of Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, and Reading (WICOR®) strategies for increasing rigor in the classroom. Teams will also examine data systems needed to measure next-level readiness while building the leadership needed to deepen AVID’s schoolwide impact in the Instruction Domain to create the conditions for college readiness for all. All strategies, digital activities, and digital tools experienced in this Community of Practice can be leveraged in face-to-face, blended, or virtual learning environments.
