New PEER research brief on AVID

Our latest brief from NashvillePeer examined more than 19,000 MNPS graduates to better understand how participation in the AVID program relates to students' progression from high school into college. This work was led by our postdoctoral fellow Changhee Lee.

Key Takeaways

  • Students who participated in AVID were more likely than similar peers to participate in EPSOs, graduate from high school on time, and enroll in a four-year college. 

  • The strongest effects were observed for English learners, economically disadvantaged students, and students with low or medium prior achievement.
