Leadership NISD
Welcome
Thank you for joining Leadership NISD! We look forward to a great year full of interaction, dialogue and partnership. The purpose of Leadership NISD is to develop community leadership to support the district’s success, promote the vision of the district and provide a resource for community input and involvement. We hope you enjoy the program and become ambassadors for NISD.
About Leadership NISD
Leadership NISD is an exciting program involving parents and community members in a year-long dialogue with the school district. Leadership NISD allows participants to go behind the scenes for an in-depth look at Northwest ISD. Monthly early-morning sessions focus on specific areas of the district, including operations, curriculum and instruction, support services, athletics, school finance, and more. We hope this program will encourage you to be future members of district committees and teams who make a difference in the school community as opinion leaders. Two former Leadership NISD participants have served on the NISD Board of Trustees.
Membership Process
Members of Leadership NISD are nominated by a campus principal or district administrator for their interest in Northwest ISD. Each campus should be represented by at least one participant in the program. If campus nominees are unable to join the program or additional space is available, the district will consider self-nominated individuals with principal/administrator approval from a waitlist.
