BE NATURAL:<br />
THE KEY TO SURVIVING THE HOLIDAY SEASON<br />
B - Breathe deeply, it will help increase energy levels.<br />
E - Exercise: 20 minutes, three times a week - and running from<br />
errand to errand doesn’t count!<br />
N - Nutrition: Three well-balanced meals each day.<br />
A - Attitude: Negative attitudes are contagious and destructive. Try<br />
to see the glass half full.<br />
T - Time management: Set priorities and don’t take on more than you<br />
can handle.<br />
U - Uniqueness: Recognize and treasure your own uniqueness. Say<br />
“no” when necessary.<br />
R - Relaxation: Private time to read or listen to music - a time not to<br />
focus on the next item to do.<br />
A - Associations: Maintain contact with nurturing support systems -<br />
colleagues, friends, family.<br />
L - Laughter: Still the best medicine.<br />

HOUSTON ASTROS ALEX BREGMAN CHARITY<br />
DONATES IPADS TO KATY ISD<br />
It was a day to remember for many Katy Independent School District<br />
students, who had a visit from Houston Astros third baseman and<br />
shortstop Alex Bregman and the school received brand new iPads,<br />
courtesy of the Bregman Cares Charity. Four Katy ISD schools, including<br />
Leonard, McRoberts, Griffin and Stephens elementary schools, welcomed<br />
the baseball player to their campus for the donation, all while practicing<br />
COVID-19 safety protocols.<br />
“It feels great to see their smiles,” said Houston Astros Alex Bregman.<br />
“Schools are doing a great job of keeping students safe and also helping<br />
them learn. Katy ISD has done a great job in these tough times and is<br />
helping the kids through their learning. It’s been great to be able to hand<br />
out iPads today,” added Bregman.<br />
The Bregman Cares mission is to provide awareness, support, time and<br />
resources to children locally and throughout the country. For the past<br />
few years, the organization has focused on donating technology devices<br />
and educational resources for students.<br />
KATY ISD PROVIDING FREE MEALS<br />
TO ALL KATY AREA STUDENTS<br />
Through an extended waiver from the U.S. Department of Agriculture<br />
(USDA) and Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA), Katy ISD began<br />
providing free meals to all Katy area students on Monday, September<br />
21 st . Students can receive breakfast and lunch at no cost through<br />
<strong>December</strong> 31 st or pending available funds through the USDA and TDA.<br />
“All students are eligible for one breakfast and one lunch meal per day per<br />
federal guidance,” said Nutrition & Food Service Executive Director Donna<br />
Pittenger. “Parents can however add funds to their student’s Pay N’ Go<br />
meal account for a la carte purchases or in preparation for when the<br />
USDA waiver ends,” added Pittenger.<br />
For students participating in Katy ISD virtual instruction, as well as<br />
children 18 and under not enrolled in Katy ISD, breakfast and lunch can<br />
be picked up at designated school curbside distribution sites from 4 to<br />
6 PM, Monday through Friday. Meals are packaged to be heated and<br />
eaten at home and are to be picked up a day before the intended use.<br />
Distribution sites include:<br />
· Cinco Ranch High School, 23440 Cinco Ranch Blvd, Katy, TX 77494<br />
· Mayde Creek High School, 19202 Groeschke Road, Katy, TX 77084<br />
· Morton Ranch High School, 21000 Franz Road, Katy, TX 77449<br />
The TDA policy now requires parents picking up meals, without a<br />
student, to present one of the following forms of documentation for<br />
each child: an official letter, email, electronic school application, student<br />
report card, student ID card, attendance records with student’s names<br />
or a birth certificate. Once the waiver expires, Katy ISD will switch back<br />
to the National School Lunch and Breakfast Program. Free and reduced<br />
meal applications must still be submitted for the <strong>2020</strong>-2021 school year<br />
to determine benefits after the waiver ends. Parents can visit schoolcafe.<br />
com/KatyISD to apply online.<br />
