The rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic has challenged each and every one of us over the past few weeks. Many of you were asked to prepare lessons for your students from home while taking care of your own family. Our School Nutrition Services team had days to figure out how to serve thousands of students the meals some of them can’t live without. Our dedicated counselors made plans to launch support lines to give our students and parents a direct line to someone who cares.
You did this, and you did it in record time.
I am so proud of the quick response and positive attitude you’ve displayed during this difficult time. I want to thank you for stepping up while dealing with the stress and anxiety of the unknown. I have no doubt you will continue to rise to the next challenge in the weeks ahead.
Many of you worked tirelessly to prepare for the launch of distance learning on Monday. Thousands of paper assignments and online lessons have already been distributed to our families. Now, more than ever, our parents and students will rely on you to help walk them through our online learning resources. Thank you for being so flexible and stepping up to help during a stressful process for many of our families.
The District will continue to hand out thousands of meals through our curbside meal pick-up and our NEISD Fresh Express, which reaches students by bus directly in their neighborhoods. Our dedicated team of counselors remain on call through our Counselor Support Lines and are here to help any parent, student or staff member in need.
I hope you’ve seen the outpouring of love and support for you and our district on social media. Parents, students and community members have noticed the way you’ve stepped up over the past few weeks. Everywhere I look, I see an example of a teacher video calling a student, smiling faces during a neighborhood parade or a handmade sign by a student showing their thanks.
You are what makes NEISD so special. We couldn’t do it without you.
It’s obvious - NEISD cares.
Thank you for all your hard work.
