We are so proud of Giselle Carpenter, Lake Placid High School junior, for being selected as an AVID Student Speaker for Summer Institute 2024!

Giselle was among hundreds of students from across the nation to apply to speak at one of AVID's Summer Institutes. She was chosen and will share her AVID story in front of nearly 3,000 educators this summer in Tampa.

AVID has changed so many lives since we began implementing this college and career readiness system in 2013, and Giselle's story is a wonderful example of the difference being made in our schools! We can't wait to see her shine in Tampa this summer!!
