File Attachment:
Summary: Liberty High School’s (LHS) Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) Coordinator, Emma Bennett, is planning the annual Northern California college trip for LHS AVID Seniors. The dates of the trip are November 4-9, 2024. Approximately forty-eight (48) students and four (4) adult chaperones will be visiting fifteen (15) college campuses over the five (5) day, four (4) night trip. The list of colleges/universities is as follows: Fresno State University, UC Merced, State University Stanislaus, Sacramento State University, UC Davis, Chico State University, Sonoma State University, San Francisco State University, UC Berkeley, San Jose State University, Stanford University, UC Santa Cruz, Cal State Monterey Bay, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and UC Santa Barbara.

The purpose of the trip is to introduce different campuses to students. Some schools in Northern California offer diverse educational opportunities. Liberty High School AVID students are more willing to leave home when they have already visited the campus. Our District has a significant representation of former AVID students on many north-place campuses. This trip is essential to building the college and career culture at LHS.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2024-25 through Liberty High School's Advancement Via Individual Determination Associated Student Body Account, not the General Fund.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the Overnight Field Trip Request for Liberty High School Advancement Via Individual Determination students to visit Northern California College Campuses, November 4-9, 2024.
