Mural Creation : ELCHS Part 8 : AVID and WICOR

Mural Creation: ELCHS Part 8: AVID & WICOR
Just about every parent’s dream is for their child to go to college. As part of the on-going ROCT mural project at East Lee County High School (http://elc.leeschools.net )  , I painted the AVID and WICOR images to encourage students to focus on their college and career goals. The AVID program was set up to ensure a student’s college readiness. Answering questions like: How do you actually get there? Are there specific high school classes to take to achieve their ultimate degree and career choice?  What criteria is your college choice looking for on your application?



AVID uses the WICOR tools to help students reach their college dreams. WICOR stands for Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, and Reading
