We are excited to be growing the AVID program at LOHS. 2021-2022 will be our eighth year of implementation and we are enjoying watching this program develop and grow into a true success for our students.

Our students enjoy a rigorous academic journey complete with college tutors that assist in the classrooms twice each week. They also experience college visits, college fairs and career exploration opportunities.
