The 40 Development Assets were created by The Search Institute after years of researching what experiences and relationships help youth become well rounded, successful adults. The more assets a young person experiences, the better they will be as adults, and the less likely they are to engage in risky behavior.

HEB ISD embraces the Assets, and many faculty have been trained to create deliberate experiences so that our children can build as many assets as possible. Incorporating the Assets is also a part of District Goal 4, Safe, Healthy, and Nurturing Schools.
