AVID: The Benefits Of Middle School

Ever since I was a child, I was messy with my school work and maybe even with non-school related things too. I was very unorganized and with that came grades that were not acceptable to my parents and, looking more into the future, college. My mother would beg me to start becoming more organized and neat but I would not listen to her. When I started middle school, she heard about a program called AVID that supposedly helped students become more organized, helps you take notes, and helped them look into college and the future. As soon as she realized what the program was for she immediately put me in it. I took the program for all my three years in middle school and my experience, it worked. Thanks to my mother and, of course, the program she
put me in, I now have a very important skill that helps with many things in life. Having this ability includes greater productivity because knowing where everything is at and knowing what you have done and taking care of it as soon as you get work gives you more time for hobbies without having to worry about work. Being organized also helps create less stress for yourself which is very wanted when you're at a college trying to pass all classes as best as you could. Many benefits come with come with the skill of organization, and I am extremely thankful for it.
