KATY ISD APPROVES<br />

INSTRUCTIONAL CALENDARS FOR NEXT TWO YEARS<br />

As part of the Katy Independent School District, “Your District,<br />

Your Voice” initiative, the community has provided its input for<br />

the upcoming yearly instructional calendar. The Katy ISD Board<br />

of Trustees has approved the following option for the <strong>2018</strong>-2019<br />

academic year:<br />

Option #1<br />

School Begins: Wednesday, August 15th<br />

School Ends: Thursday, May 23rd<br />

Instructional Calendar Days: 177<br />

Full week off for Thanksgiving<br />

“The District is required to have a minimum of 75,600 minutes of<br />

instruction per school year,” says Bonnie Holland, associate superintendent<br />

for administration, governance and legal affairs. “With<br />

the options approved, Katy ISD has enough calendar minutes to<br />

cover two bad weather days,” added Holland.<br />

K-12 Insight, the external research firm conducting the survey,<br />

found that, out of the 22,169 participants, 65% favored option #1.<br />

The Board also approved an instructional calendar for 2019-2020<br />

school year. This calendar mirrors the preferred components of<br />

the <strong>2018</strong>-19 calendar.<br />
