We depend on staff members from every campus and department to submit information about student and staff honors and events.

Send your submission to news@nisd.net, and please observe the following criteria:

  • Photos should be in focus and high-resolution quality. No cell phone photos, please.
  • Provide first and last names and grade level (if applicable) of all students, staff members, and other identifiable people in photo captions.
  • Be sure to include as much information as possible (one to two paragraphs) about your event or program.

We receive hundreds of submissions every month and work hard to publish as many as possible. Please understand that it can take up to several weeks after submission for an item to be published.
