Providing a safe, supportive and inclusive learning environment is one of our most important responsibilities. All students and their families are a valued part of our Austin ISD community and our diversity strengthens and enriches our school district.

We recognize the emotional toll that recent news cycles may be taking on our students, families and staff. For many in our community, these are not just policy discussions, but deeply personal issues that can create uncertainty and fear. 

In response to these national conversations, we’ve developed FAQs to help our families understand how the district is responding to any new policies that could impact our schools.
