Removing non-academic barriers to learning that interfere with students’ ability to actively engage in classroom instruction and other school activities is essential. A systemic approach to how schools provide learning supports ensures that school improvement efforts succeed and are sustainable. Effectively utilizing intervention assistance teams, resources, and data analysis regarding behavioral, physical, and mental health at the student and campus level will connect student learning supports to academic growth and achievement. HISD’s goal is to ensure that students have the skills, supports, and resources they need to be successful.
