AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) is a college-readiness system designed to increase the number of students who enroll in four-year colleges. Although AVID serves all students, it focuses on the least served students in the academic middle. 

In the Greenwich High School AVID Class of 2014, 21 out of 21 students have received acceptances to four-year colleges including the Naval Academy and the Culinary Institute of America. In addition, these students have received over $1,500,000 in merit scholarships and grants. Last year, all 16 students in GHS's first graduating class were accepted to college and all are the first in their families to attend college. The Alliance CAP and Mentoring Programs continue to provide financial support and guidance as these students and their families confront the financial burden of and navigate the college environment of higher education.
