When raising youth with social cognitive deficits, we talk a lot about perspective-taking and often set annual IEP goals and objectives related to thinking about and accommodating others. This makes sense because students with autism, social communication disorder, nonverbal learning disability, and related developmental and learning difficulties are known to struggle with their perceptions about the people in the world around them.
However, another important area of challenge for many students with social cognitive deficits is developing self-awareness and self-concept. This is a critical skill set for students of all ages, as understanding yourself and your needs is a key step in identity development. Moreover, being able to notice when you may need support and ask for help is vital for getting your needs met adequately. More information can be found HERE.

The HWRSD is seeking community input for the proposed HW Elementary School Project. The project team has hosted three Community Forums since January to inform, but also create an open dialogue with all stakeholders. We have created a survey, hoping that you have had the opportunity to attend or watch one of the forums. We are asking community members to watch the most recent recorded Community Forum (the Presentation covers the first 54 mins of the recording) and then fill out a brief survey to provide feedback.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to engage in this exciting and important project.
The HW EdFund will be collecting any undamaged eclipse glasses you may have in May. They will be sending them to schools in Latin America so the school-aged children can view the October 2024 Eclipse. Please send your glasses into the school office and the EdFund will handle the rest!
