They loved the expansive Pollak Library and the Titan Student Union.<\/p>\n<p>During the first week of November, AVID seniors got a unique opportunity to visit a local private institution, Hope International University, located across the street from CSUF. Hope International University has created a partnership with Valencia&#8217;s AVID program, and supports our students with tremendous scholarship opportunities. In fact, some former AVID Tigers are currently attending Hope International University on full scholarships.<\/p>\n<p>AVID, which stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination, is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to closing the achievement gap by preparing all students for college and other postsecondary opportunities, especially those traditionally underrepresented in higher education.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/valencia-avid-college-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1126\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/valencia-avid-college-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"valencia-avid-college-2\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/valencia-avid-college-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/valencia-avid-college-2.jpg 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In early October, students in the AVID program at Valencia High School visited California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), for a tour of their campus and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1125,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1177,15],"tags":[13],"class_list":["post-1124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-high-school","category-school-district","tag-valencia-high-school"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodnews.pylusd.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
