Designed to increase the number of students who enroll in four-year colleges, Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) is a national college-readiness system serving nearly 700 students in Lawrence Township. The Foundation has funded the program since 2000 with significant support from our partner, USA Funds.

The program has a 98% high school graduation rate and a 90%-plus college acceptance rate. In 2011, AVID student, Emily Thomas graduated as one of Lawrence Township’s “Top 30” seniors – this is the 2nd consecutive year AVID has graduated a student in the “Top 30” of her class!
