Note: Next year, Katy ISD will be revising the number and type of restrictions (i.e. no snacks) placed regarding food choices placed into the cafeteria register. If your child has an allergy to specific foods, you will need to have your physician complete a form in order for the food allergy or special diet to be included as a “note” in the register. Physician statement forms can be obtained from the school nurse now in order to give parents time to get the form signed over the summer. If you have already informed the nurse of your child’s allergy, the required form will be coming home in the Parent Communication folder.
Crossing guard: We are looking for a second crossing guard for the 2008-2009 school year. If you have an interest in such a position, please contact Tami Bond.
Lost and Found: Please check the lost and found for anything your child might be missing. As soon as school is out, all items are given to a local charity. There are a number of coats, sweaters, sweatshirts, etc. We also have several pairs of glasses in the front office.
Cafeteria charges: Outstanding cafeteria charges need to be cleared as soon as possible.
Moving this summer?: If you are certain that your family will be moving this summer, please call Mrs. Kollaja at 281-237-8387.
