Intervention
Welcome to the Intervention Department

The Washoe County School District Intervention Department's supports the district's promise to know every student by name, strength, and need by working in partnership with students, families, schools, and community agencies to ensure the success of all students. We work to identify and remove barriers that cause chronic absenteeism and build resiliency with children and families.
