AVID Applications

Applications are now being accepted for next year's AVID Elective classes in grade 7 at North Jr. High.  AVID is program that can benefit all students, but specifically targets those in the academic "middle" and is about acceleration, not remediation. AVID also provides a great opportunity for students who will be one of the first in their family to attend college. Qualities of an AVID student that we are looking for are:

  • determination to do well in school but has struggled in some areas,
  • ability to be successful in rigorous classes but needs extra support,
  • desire to attend college after graduating from Hopkins High School.

Applications should be completed and returned to Erik Thompson, 10700 Cedar Lake Road, Minnetonka, MN 55305 or to your school's guidance office or student services center by January 19th. Click here for application.
