Understanding and Addressing Student and Family Need in HISD
During this event, findings from a recent survey of HISD student and family needs will be shared. Breakout sessions will be organized around a series of key areas of need in the district, such as health, housing, basic needs, and extracurricular supports.
The student needs survey identifies key nonacademic challenges students face across five domains: health, mental health, basic needs, home learning environment and enrichment activities.
HISD Student Needs Survey: Fall 2021
HISD's 2021 student needs survey measured student needs across five categories: health, mental health, basic needs, home learning environment, and enrichment activities.
This study stems from the first annual Needs Assessment Survey created and administered by the Houston Independent School District (HISD). Findings from the survey indicate that families could use additional support in four key areas: healthcare, mental health, housing and food security, and school supplies.
