Northwest Suburban Integration School District Year in Review
NWSISD continues to have an impact on students, families, and staff in our
member districts. We served more than 19,000 students through our
magnet school placements, programs, and events. This year, three new
magnet schools - Hayes Elementary (IB), Stevenson Elementary (IB), and
Coon Rapids High School Biomed Program (STEM) - joined the consortium
for a total of twenty-four magnet schools and programs. Our Multicultural
Resource Center impacted more than 20,000 students who were able to
view, experience, and learn about other cultures through costumes,
artifacts, curriculum, and art. NWSISD also provided nine magnet schools
with Reflection and Review which showcases the positive impact in
programing magnet schools have on their students. We also partnered with over 150 individuals and organizations
within the greater NWSISD community to positively impact students and families through family events, student
leadership events, and professional development. The chart below showcases NWSISD student participation by
district and program opportunity.
