On all middle and high school campuses in NEISD, peer mediation is implemented through the PAL program and serves as a key component in the services that the PALs provide to their schools. Implementation plans in elementary programs consist of the formation of peer mediation teams, which are comprised of trained students who have been nominated by their peers, teachers, counselors and administrators. |
