Career & College Readiness is not a one-size-fits-all effort at Fort Bragg Unified Schools.
We work with Upward Bound, Educational Talent Search and AVID programs to provide a variety of support options to our students.
What's the difference?
Each program has different requirements & levels of commitment.
AVID’s mission is to close the opportunity gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success, whether their destination be 4-yr college, community college, a trade school/program or the workforce. AVID helps students Keep Doors Open.
TRIO's Educational Talent Search (ETS) collaborates with K-12 school sites, families, and other college & career access programs like AVID to provide career, college & trade school advising AND tutoring to prepare our students grade 6-12 to progress towards graduation and for life after high school.
TRIO's Upward Bound provides first-generation college-bound students with academic readiness and resources necessary to access and graduate from a four-year college or university. More...
AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) is a classroom-based college-readiness program designed to help students develop the skills they need to be successful in college. A-to-G requirements driven, AVID at Fort Bragg High School is all about "KEEPING DOORS OPEN," understanding that our students need time, guidance and support throughout all 4 years in high school to determine what their lives will look like after high school.
EDUCATIONAL TALENT SEARCH (ETS)
