DEMOGRAPHERS PROJECT<br />
CONTINUED GROWTH FOR KATY ISD<br />
During its December Board meeting, Population and Survey Analysts<br />
(PASA) presented its annual demographic update on Katy ISD enrollment<br />
growth. According to the organization, the District is expected to see<br />
nearly 100,000 students by 2029, making it the second fastest growth<br />
school district in Texas.<br />
While the District is currently 79% built out, PASA projects the majority of<br />
enrollment growth is expected to take place in the northwest quadrant<br />
of Katy ISD. Specifically, Katy High School and Paetow High School are<br />
projected to be over enrollment capacity by the year 2023. The five<br />
largest and fastest growing subdivisions in the northwest quadrant<br />
include Elyson, Cane Island, Bridgeland, Camillo Lakes, Morton Creek<br />
Ranch. Together, these growing subdivisions are expected to bring over<br />
27,000 residents to the area within the next eight years.<br />
Even with the growth projections spotlighting the northwest quadrant,<br />
in other quadrants around the District, many campuses will see various<br />
levels of enrollment growth. Cinco Ranch High School, for example, is<br />
projected to see large enrollment numbers in <strong>2020</strong>-2022.<br />
Katy ISD works closely with PASA to determine attendance boundary<br />
modifications needed as the district continues to grow at a rapid<br />
pace. PASA indicated the District will need new campuses to address<br />
overcapacity enrollment relief and to balance enrollment across the<br />
District, especially in the predicted growth area of the northwest<br />
quadrant.<br />
KATY ISD MOVING FORWARD<br />
WITH TWO SCHOOL BUS INITIATIVES<br />
In December, the Katy Independent School District Board of Trustees<br />
approved two transportation items that are focused on providing<br />
safe, reliable transportation to the District. The Transportation Camera<br />
Systems Upgrade, which was made possible by Katy ISD’s 2017 Bond,<br />
will enhance the camera systems on every District bus to include eight<br />
cameras located in the front, inside and back of the buses. In addition, to<br />
help alleviate the bus driver shortage across the District, Trustees voted<br />
to approve a contract for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 school year that will provide<br />
funds to hire GoldStar Transit, a third party transportation provider, to<br />
supplement districtwide driver personnel needs.<br />
Assistant Superintendent of Operations, Ted Vierling, presented both<br />
items. “The camera system upgrade will provide the latest in technology<br />
and safety measures available in school bus transportation,” said Vierling.<br />
“The system is capable of supplying video coverage of every seat<br />
positioned in the school bus, while also monitoring the activity in nearly<br />
every corner of the vehicle and bus stop locations,” he added.<br />
Installation of the cameras began over the District’s Winter Break, with<br />
all 330 regular buses and 241 special education buses anticipated to be<br />
outfitted by the end of the 2019-<strong>2020</strong> school year.<br />
Katy ISD will also enter into an agreement with GoldStar Transit to provide<br />
additional drivers as the District continues to struggle with personnel<br />
recruitment amid the state- and nation-wide bus driver shortage. The new<br />
agreement with GoldStar Transit, a Texas based transportation company, will<br />
provide at least 40 bus routes, though remains tentative until new school and<br />
enrollment routes are confirmed in Summer <strong>2020</strong>. GoldStar Transit currently<br />
provides services to a number of school districts, including Fort Bend ISD,<br />
Bastrop ISD, Waco ISD and Navasota ISD. The company’s drivers will be<br />
trained alongside Katy ISD bus drivers, while its buses will display Katy ISD<br />
signage and have equipment on par with that of standard District buses.<br />
Still, District officials have emphasized that recruiting and retaining inhouse<br />
drivers remains its priority now and into the future. Katy ISD has<br />
put a great deal of effort into increasing and maintaining its bus driver<br />
pool, including recently raising hourly pay to $17.17/hour - a figure that<br />
is competitive across the region, increasing perfect attendance and<br />
recruitment bonuses, providing child care services at the rate of $2 a day<br />
and conducting annual recruitment fairs.<br />
KATY ISD EARNS AP® DISTRICT<br />
HONOR ROLL FOR THE 8TH TIME<br />
The College Board announced Katy Independent School District as one<br />
of 250 school districts in the U.S. and Canada to be recognized by the<br />
organization on the 10 th Annual AP® District Honor Roll for increasing<br />
Advanced Placement (AP) course participation and scores. Katy ISD is one<br />
of only 18 districts in Texas to earn this distinction.<br />
More than 4,000 colleges and universities around the world accept AP<br />
scores for college credit, advanced placement and/or consideration in the<br />
admissions process. To be included on the 10 th Annual AP District Honor<br />
Roll, the committee reviews three years of data, student participation<br />
and student scores on AP Exams.<br />
Additional requirements to be eligible for the 10 th Annual AP District<br />
Honor Roll, participating districts must:<br />
• Increase participation/access to AP course work by at least 4 percent<br />
in large districts, at least 6 percent in medium districts and at least 11<br />
percent in small districts.<br />
• Increase or maintain the percentage of exams taken by Black/African<br />
American, Hispanic/Latino, American Indian/Alaska Native and Native<br />
Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander students who scored a 3 or higher on at<br />
least one AP exam.<br />
• Improve or maintain performance levels when comparing the<br />
percentage of students in 2018 scoring a three (3) or higher to those<br />
in 2016, unless the district has already attained a performance level at<br />
which more than 70 percent of its AP students are scoring a 3 or higher.<br />
In 2019, Katy ISD was also named the College Board’s AP Large District<br />
of the Year for being the nation’s leader among large school districts in<br />
simultaneously expanding access to Advanced Placement Program® (AP)<br />
courses and improving students’ performance on AP Exams.<br />
Founded in 1919, Katy ISD recently celebrated a century of learning as a leader<br />
in educational excellence. The District maintains more than 66 campuses and<br />
facilities and serves 83,000+ students. Recently, Katy ISD earned an “A” overall<br />
district rating from the Texas Education Agency and an “A” from the Texas<br />
Schools Financial Accountability Rating System of Texas (FIRST).<br />

WOODCREEK JUNIOR HS FUNDRAISER RAISES<br />
OVER $8,000 FOR LEUKEMIA AND LYMPHOMA<br />
Recently, Katy Independent School District’s WoodCreek Junior High<br />
(WCJH) participated in the Pennies for Patients program and raised more<br />
than $8,600 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS). Over four<br />
days, the campus rallied behind the cause, helped promote community<br />
service and is currently the top earning school in the LLS Texas Gulf Coast<br />
Region for the 2019-<strong>2020</strong> school year. Since 2009, WCJH has raised over<br />
$68,000 for the organization. The fundraiser is sponsored and led by<br />
eighth graders in the WCJH National Junior Honor Society (NJHS). They<br />
offer students the opportunity to “buy out” of their class on an early<br />
dismissal day by bringing in as many pennies as they can. If the classroom<br />
raises more than $20, they are eligible to opt out of normal class work and<br />
would instead hear from local cancer patients or do classroom activities<br />
from the program’s STEM curriculum. The NJHS students run and sponsor<br />
the fundraiser, which includes setup, posters, collecting and counting the<br />
money. WCJH teachers and NJHS sponsors, Courtney Lewis and Kayleigh<br />
Covington, were in awe of this year’s campus support that rallied around<br />
the annual fundraiser.<br />
“The WCJH campus is so fantastic to put the effort and excitement that<br />
they do into the program and raising money for the Leukemia and<br />
Lymphoma Society. Every class gets into it and it is a fun competition<br />
that also benefits a wonderful cause,” Lewis said. In addition to school<br />
incentives, the LLS program does provide rewards for the top earning<br />
classes on each campus. The top class wins a catered Olive Garden lunch,<br />
the second wins a Domino’s pizza party and third wins a popsicle party. “It<br />
is incredible how much money we were able to raise! I am so proud of how<br />
giving our students are,” Dr. Melinda Stone, WCJH Principal, said. “It is a true<br />
testament to the collective support of our staff, parents and community.”<br />
Pennies for Patients, a science-based service-learning program, connects<br />
schools with local blood cancer patients, provides tangible life skills<br />
to participants, a K-8 STEM curriculum and allows students to see the<br />
impact they’re making in the lives of others. The Leukemia & Lymphoma<br />
Society (LLS) is the world’s largest voluntary health agency dedicated to<br />
blood cancer. The LLS mission is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s<br />
disease and myeloma and improve the quality of life of patients and their<br />
families. To learn more, visit the LLS Pennies for Patients website.<br />
NATIONAL DONOR DAY<br />
Observed each year on <strong>February</strong> 14 th , National Donor Day (also known as<br />
National Organ Donor Day) is a day to increase awareness about organ<br />
donation and the lives that can be saved. In the United States, more than<br />
120,000 people are waiting for a life-saving organ donation. Give the gift of<br />
Life. National Donor Day focuses on five different types of donations: organs,<br />
tissues, marrow, platelets and blood. Many nonprofit health organizations<br />
sponsor blood and marrow drives and organ/tissue sign-ups across the<br />
nation. Approximately every two seconds, there is someone in the U.S. who<br />
needs blood, which translates to the need for over 41,000 daily donations.<br />
Look into becoming a donor. Visit donatelifenw.org and organdonor.gov<br />
for more information on organ donation.<br />
National Donor Day was started in 1998 by the Saturn Corporation and its<br />
United Auto Workers partners, with the support of the U.S. Department<br />
of Health and Human Services and many nonprofit health organizations.<br />

We’re 2.5 million strong-more than 1.7 million girls and 750,000 adults<br />
who believe in the power of every G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risktaker,<br />
Leader) to change the world. Nationally, our extraordinary journey<br />
began more than 100 years ago with the original G.I.R.L., Juliette Gordon<br />
“Daisy” Low. On March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia, she organized<br />
the very first Girl Scout troop and every year since, we’ve honored her<br />
vision and legacy, building girls of courage, confidence and character<br />
who make the world a better place. Chartered by GSUSA to provide Girl<br />
Scouting locally, Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council, a United Way agency,<br />
is one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country serving more than<br />
53,000 girl members and 17,000 adults in 26 southeast Texas counties.<br />
We’re the preeminent leadership development organization for girls and<br />
we offer every girl a chance to practice a lifetime of leadership, adventure<br />
and success. To volunteer, reconnect, donate or join, call 1-800-392-4340<br />

CONGRATULATIONS TO A NEW EAGLE SCOUT<br />
William Hummeldorf, a sophomore at Tompkins High School in Katy,<br />
Texas, completed his Eagle Project at Manford Williams Elementary<br />
in Lamar CISD this month. William has been in the Boy Scout program<br />
since Kindergarten and is about to earn the highest rank possible. He<br />
is currently a Life Scout with BSA Troop 1103. He named his project the<br />
Rainbow Room. His Rainbow Room is a sensory room for elementary<br />
students with special needs. He wanted to provide a place for students<br />
to go when they feel over stimulated or overwhelmed. William is very<br />
passionate about this project because he, too, is on the autism spectrum<br />
and utilized a Rainbow Room in his preschool. William’s Rainbow room<br />
has a ball pit (made by Troop 1103), a punching bag, crash pad, teepee<br />
with weighted blanket and body sock, as well as a comfy bean bag chair<br />
with Optical LED lights surrounding it. William also provided a laptop with<br />
calming music already downloaded as well as a diffuser for aromatherapy<br />
and projector shining lights on the ceiling. The room is a tiny wonderland<br />
for kids who need it. William raised the money from family and friends,<br />
created a budget, built and assembled the items with help from fellow<br />
scouts and installed everything one weekend in December. William<br />
hopes the idea of his Rainbow Room will spread to other schools.<br />
