Families
Family Engagement
Family Engagement creates and sustains partnerships with students, families, and the community to ensure high levels of learning for all by offering programs, experiences, and learning opportunities throughout the year.
Military Families
North East ISD welcomes military families who have been transferred to a local military installation. Any parent or guardian who is an active-duty member of the armed forces of the United States, or who is part of the reserve armed forces, may establish residence and enroll children in North East ISD.
Bilingual Learners
Dual Language Program
Dual language in NEISD in an enriched, additive, bilingual educational model. Two-way classes ideally will be comprised of one-half native Spanish speakers and one- half native English speaker. The one-way classes will be comprised of all native Spanish speakers. The native language and culture of each student is valued and treated equitably and therefore promotes positive self-esteem and leads to academic success. Research strongly suggests students perform at or above grade level on standardized assessments and develop high levels of proficiency of both languages.
ESL Newcomer Program
The Newcomer Program provides a safe and scaffolded learning environment where diversity is valued in transitioning students to meet high expectations for language acquisition, academic achievement, and responsible citizenship. The NEISD Newcomer program is for recent arrival of refugees or asylees. This program provides the support of a safe learning environment in order for the students to begin acclimating to U. S. schools. The newcomer program assists students by providing linguistic, cognitive, and academic needs while holding high standards. The students will participate in the program for no more than 2 years as it depends on an individual student basis.
