SUICIDE PREVENTION
AND AWARENESS
Suicide awareness is a national focus in September, and RISD is
dedicated to providing valuable information about the risk factors,
warning signs, and available support resources. Student screenings,
suicide awareness trainings and guidance lessons on suicide
prevention and awareness will be held at every RISD campus.
SAFETY AND
SECURITYOur number one priority is the safety of the
students and staff in Richardson ISD. During
August, the Standard Responses Protocol to be
shared and reviewed with all RISD stakeholders.
HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS
Relationship care is an essential part of daily life. RISD values
healthy relationships and the positive outcomes healthy relationships
produce for all. January and February will concentrate
on helping students, staff and community
understand the value of healthy
relationships.
CULTURAL
COMPETENCERISD values and appreciates the diversity
of the world around us. Understanding
and respecting people from different
backgrounds, ethnicities and beliefs
is a must for adults and the students
they teach. March will be a month of
activities dedicated to celebrating and
understanding the diversity
that is RISD!
RISD’s theme for the 2018-2019
school year is “Connect, People!”
Connections are essential for any
group to be successful. Look for
various activities district wide and
at campuses that strengthen
connections and review all the

school year.

students and staff members to learn more
about mental health and meaningful next
steps to support themselves and the
children they teach.

#liveWiseliveHealthyCapacitación a escala comunitaria, planificación y oportunidades para facultar a los jóvenes mediante
la toma de decisiones saludables y sabias y experiencias transformadoras significativas.
Crear conciencia sobre el suicidio tiene enfoque nacional durante
septiembre, por lo que RISD está dedicado a brindar información
valiosa sobre los factores de riesgo, las señales de aviso y los
recursos de apoyo que hay disponibles. Se realizarán evaluaciones
para los alumnos, capacitaciones sobre el riesgo de suicidio y
lecciones de orientación para su prevención en cada plantel de RISD.
Nuestra prioridad número uno es la seguridad de
nuestros estudiantes y el personal de Richardson
ISD. Durante agosto, se compartirá y repasará
el Protocolo de Respuesta Estándar con todo los
grupos interesados de RISD.
Mantener buenas relaciones es una parte fundamental de la vida diaria.
RISD valora las relaciones sanas y los resultados positivos que producen
para todos. En enero y febrero, nos concentraremos en ayudar
a los alumnos, al personal y la comunidad a
entender el valor de las relaciones
sanas.
RISD valora y aprecia la diversidad del mundo
que nos rodea. Comprender y respetar a las
personas de procedencias, orígenes étnicos
y creencias distintas es indispensable para
los adultos y los alumnos a quienes enseñan.
¡En marzo, se llevarán a cabo actividades
dedicadas a celebrar y comprender la
diversidad que somos en
RISD!
El lema de RISD durante el año escolar
2018-2019 es “Connect, People!”
(¡Conéctense, gente!). Crear conexiones
es fundamental para que un grupo
tenga éxito. Esté pendiente de las
diferentes actividades en todo el
distrito y las escuelas para estrechar las
conexiones, y también eche un vistazo
a los temas de enfoque mensual de
liveWiseliveHealthy
para el año
escolar 2018-2019.
Aproximadamente uno de cada 11 niños sufre algún
tipo de depresión antes de cumplir 14 años. RISD
se une al movimiento para acabar con el estigma
relacionado con los padecimientos mentales. Los
planes para promover esta campaña incluyen
oportunidades para que los padres, alumnos y
miembros del personal conozcan más sobre
la salud mental y los pasos a seguir que son
importantes al buscar apoyo para ellos
mismos y los niños a quienes enseñan.
RISD toma muy en serio la educación para
la prevención de la violencia y el consumo de
drogas. El consumo de drogas y las consecuencias
devastadoras de la violencia pueden cambiar
repentinamente la trayectoria de un joven. En
octubre, los programas de prevención del consumo
de drogas y la violencia incluirán la celebración de
la Semana del Listón Rojo, desarrollo profesional
para los docentes y sesiones para los padres sobre
temas como: señales de aviso del uso de drogas,
violencia en el noviazgo y acoso.
