Hi Friends, We're GONGing for good news in 2022! There are many great things to celebrate and to make it LOUD & CLEAR, the AVID SUCCESS team delivered "GOOD NEWS GONGS" to the classrooms of the eight AVID teachers at GHS. Missy Brown and Mary Beth Liu's thirty-seven AVID seniors are banging the GONG every day as college acceptances keep rolling in. 37 GHS AVID alumni in college are celebrating scholarships! They just received $50,200 in scholarships completing the Alliance budget of $110,000 for the 2021-2022 school year. Since 2013, the total AVID SUCCESS Scholarship awards now exceeds $650,000 (click here for a list of scholarship award winners). Dinner with AVID graduate, Domna Dali, was such a treat for me. Domna was part of the the "Sweet Sixteen" - the first GHS AVID class taught by Missy Brown. Domna is flourishing in her career in the tech field and is sharing her time and talents with the Greenwich Alliance as a mentor for current GHS AVID students. This spring she will be speaking to Mrs. Brown's current AVID seniors. AVID works! It is time to start watching Jeopardy and practicing your trivia knowledge. Trivia Challenge 2022 is on Friday March 4th - scroll below for more details and to buy tickets. Stay warm, |
