This dissertation study examines the evolution of Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) in California's public schools, from its origins as a classroom invention in 1980, through nearly 30 years of growth and evolution as one of California's longest-surviving educational reforms. Using statewide descriptive data from secondary sources, archival documents, and the results of field interviews with a purposive sample of 15 individuals who played key roles in the development and expansion of AVID in California, the study provides a detailed description of the historical trends and milestones in the AVID experience in California, and answers the following two research questions: (1) How has AVID in California evolved from a single-classroom invention to a statewide school reform? (2) Why has AVID, despite its apparent success, not reached its potential scale in California's public schools? In analyzing the data collected to answer these two research questions, the study uses as a focusing lens several theories on scaling up and sustaining educational reforms, and on the appropriate role of the state in educational reform. The study identifies factors that have likely contributed to the growth and survival of AVID in California, and barriers that have likely inhibited the growth of AVID to its potential scale in California's public schools. In addition, the study provides state policymakers and California AVID leaders with suggestions for actions that could potentially accelerate the growth of AVID in California.
