Bradley Middle School is embracing a whole school model for Cambridge. Teachers
plan together and are provided professional development so strategies are embedded into all classroom settings.
We still have students that are on the Cambridge path. Students currently in Cambridge at an Elementary Feeder School will automatically
be placed in a Cambridge class.
The deadline has passed for new students to apply for next year. Letters will
hopefully be mailed by the end of this week for notification.
For specific Cambridge questions, please contact Moninda Eslick, our Cambridge
Coordinator.

What is the AVID elective according to current AVID students...
“The AVID elective prepares you for things after middle school like highschool and
binder and agenda.” “AVID is a class that helps your well being for all your classes, not just AVID” “In AVID you need to be prepared for work and challenges. This class will help you with many things for the future, as it did for me.” “AVID is an amazing class to take if you want to be successful. When I first heard
prepared for what comes next.”
