Baba Lee won the Regional AVID Write-Off Contest for 2010 in his grade level. The topic this year was “Save Me a Spot in College.” The AVID team has participated in this contest every year, but this was the first year they used the same topic as the scholarship completion to encourage students to enter both. We are all proud of his achievement. Baba Lee, and his teacher, Aleen Arbaugh, received recognition and gift certificates from Barnes & Noble for the AVID competition, and Baba also received a $500. scholarship for winning the second competition. Arbaugh said these were the most inspiring papers to read this year, “every student in each of the AVID classes wrote a paper and the team of teachers were so supportive with regard to lesson planning and prompts that it went off without a hitch.”
