Attendance Boundary Modification Discussion

Monday, November 14, 2016 - 6:30pm

All parents probably received the recent email from the Katy ISD Communications Department, but others may also be interested. The Board's next work-study meeting will discuss changing the students that will attend Katy Elementary, Katy Junior High, and Katy High School - all the schools our kids attend. There are new schools opening and some students will move to fill those new schools. Here's the letter:

November 11, 2016

Dear Katy ISD Parents, Staff and Community,

As the District prepares to open three campuses (Bryant Elementary, Stockdick Junior High and Paetow High School) for the 2017-2018 school year, the Board of Trustees will begin considering attendance boundary modifications (ABMs) to help balance enrollment numbers and provide relief to certain schools that are considered overcrowded at this time. Campuses that are currently under review are Morton Ranch High School, Katy High School, Katy Junior High, McDonald Junior High, Katy Elementary and Wolman Elementary.

On Monday, November 14 during the Work Study Meeting, the Board of Trustees and District administrators will review the ABM process, present preliminary ABM proposals for the 2017-2018 school year, and discuss ABM options. The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Katy ISD ESC Board Room, located at 6301 S. Stadium Lane.

Following this presentation, the public will be able to provide feedback through an ABM survey that will be made available via email and online from November 15-30. A final recommendation will be presented to the Board on December 5, 2016.
