AVID provides challenging courses to prepare students for four-year college eligibility. Margarita Rodriguez-Corriere, Director of Hispanic Initiatives for Junior Achievement, stated, “We are thrilled to be working with Solera National Bank and collaborating our resources for the benefit of the local, underserved community. We are looking forward to preparing our students for the future, and developing them with a proven curriculum.” Solera National Bank is a traditional, community commercial bank with a core competency in servicing and understanding the culturally diverse and dynamic Hispanic market.
