Northside ISD will hold its annual Decision of Respect Signing Day on Friday, October 8. Students and staff across the district will sign certificates pledging to demonstrate respect for themselves and all others through their interactions at school.

Respect can be shown in many ways, such as a simple gesture of holding the door for someone or simply saying please and thank you.

Reminder-Grit (resilience and perseverance) is the Hobby Middle School counseling department’s theme of the year. Please talk with your child about how they can show grit at home and school.


“We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.”

-Winston Churchill
