  14. Hands-On Directions: Understanding the Rating System • Institutionalization (Level 3): No more than one Indicator is below Level 3 (i.e. 3 out of 4, or 4 out of 5, or 5 out of 6 etc.; no Indicator may be at level 0. • Routine Use (Level 2): No more than one Indicator is below Level 2. No Indicator may be at level 0. • Meets Certification Standards (Level 1): No more than one Indicator is below Level 1; there must be a plan in place and implemented to bring that Indicator to Level 1 or higher for the following school year. • Not AVID (Level 0): Certification requirements for Level 1 are not met (more than 1 Indicator is below Level 1). There was no plan or the plan from the previous year was not implemented effectively.

  15. Hands-On Directions: Reviewing the 11 Essentials • Define the responsibilities needed for the success of that essential. • Decide what type of team member (Adm., Guidance, Elective Teacher, Coordinator, Interdisciplinary Site Team Teacher) would be suited for this task. • Describe how the site team might be able to show documented evidence of this essential for the CSS binder.

A strong site team = A strong AVID Program • One person can’t do this alone! • AVID done right can allow teachers feedback opportunities, offer a venue for facilitating Professional Learning, establish clear goals and expectations for school sites, offer teachers instructional resources and strategies, and establish school base instructional initiatives.
