AVID Focus School
Watson Junior High is proud to be an AVID school. AVID, Advancement Via Individual Determination, is a systemic instructional system for students to get them college and career ready.
Our accredited AVID program, with a whole school focus, helps to push students forward both academically and socially. This program provides important skills such as organization, study skills, interview practice, note-taking and so on. We also offer robust extra-curricular offerings including a robotics team that qualified for the top robotics competition in the world.
Our goal at Watson is to ensure that students have a foundation that will ready them for college level academics at the high school level and beyond. We continue to work at creating an environment where students will strive to reach their highest potential, including their college and career plans.
The Watson Way
At Watson, each of our teachers work to build positive real relationships with our students. We believe that, out of those relationships, students will be motivated to learn at much higher levels. We also believe in building strong character to help our young people become responsible, hard-working, productive citizens. Finally, we believe in building a solid college/career ready foundation for our students through our rigorous academia. Students need to be challenged with their learning and grow to become lifelong learners.
