NISD VISION for SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING

Northwest ISD schools will create an intentional, nurturing, and caring culture that engages all stakeholders in a comprehensive and integrated approach to developing the whole child as we work collectively to ensure our students are socially, emotionally, and intellectually prepared for college, the global workplace, and personal success.

NISD MISSION for SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING

Northwest ISD staff, students, parents and community will work collaboratively to design highly effective learning experiences that are responsive to ever-changing student needs and promote social, emotional, and intellectual learning for all students.

NISD BELIEFS for SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING

  • We believe our families and communities provide the foundation for our students’ social and emotional health.
  • We believe an ongoing partnership with students, families, schools, and communities is critical in fostering students’ social-emotional health and intellectual growth.
  • We believe ALL school environments must simultaneously support the social, emotional, intellectual, and cultural needs of every student by fostering a climate where all students feel safe, valued, connected, and empowered.
  • We believe, through on-going support, training, and collective efficacy, staff must continuously model, encourage, and provide time and opportunities in all environments for social-emotional health and intellectual growth to be developed and nurtured in all students.
