The AVID District Director Leadership (DDL) 2: Maximizing Roles and Responsibilities Community of Practice focuses on the specific management roles of the AVID District Director. This 12-hour training is mandatory for District Directors and optional for district leaders supporting AVID implementation. Participants will revisit the AVID College and Career Readiness framework and five district leadership priorities for AVID implementation (goal alignment, coaching implementation, professional learning, progress monitoring, and strategic collaboration and communication), with a focus on roles and responsibilities unique to the District Director in managing AVID. Participants will explore select AVID resources designed to support District Directors in ensuring a strong AVID implementation at both the site and district level. All strategies, digital activities, and digital tools experienced in this Community of Practice can be leveraged in face-to-face, blended, or virtual learning environments.

Participants must bring an acceptable device, power cord, and earbuds/headphones with them to the session. If a district-issued device is being used, be sure to log in to the device on the district network before attending. Device software and preferred web browsers (Chrome or Firefox) need to be up to date.
