KISD NEWS<br />

KATY VIRTUAL SCHOOL RECOGNIZED FOR<br />

OUTSTANDING DISTANCE LEARNING<br />

At Katy Independent School District, online learning has become<br />

an increasingly popular and effective method of education, by<br />

both students and parents, because of the expanded learning<br />

opportunities available. Due to its commitment to offer distance<br />

education, the District’s Katy Virtual School (KVS) has been<br />

recognized by the Texas Distance Learning Association (TxDLA)<br />

as the <strong>2021</strong> K-12 winner of the Outstanding Commitment to<br />

Excellence and Innovation in Distance Education recognition.<br />

“Katy ISD was the only K-12 school district in Texas to receive such<br />

a prestigious award,” said Susan Richards, Katy ISD Instructional<br />

Technology e-Learning Manager. “KVS has expanded over the years<br />

to provide secondary students quality instruction outside of normal<br />

school hours and during the summer to support their graduation<br />

plans,” added Richards.<br />

KVS launched in 2013 with a primary goal of offering choice and<br />

flexibility for rigorous online courses developed and taught by Katy<br />

ISD teachers. Over 45 Advanced Placement (AP), Katy Advanced<br />

Program and academic level courses were available to students<br />

this year with more courses being added each year. Just last year,<br />

over 4,000 students utilized KVS to reach their educational goals.<br />

KVS is a different program from the recently developed Katy Virtual<br />

Academy (KVA), which was created for online learning during the<br />

pandemic.<br />

KATY’S NEWEST FILMMAKING AND ANIMATION<br />

CAMP CREATED BY SLHS ALUMNI<br />

Howdy! Our names are Kai, Cazden, Robbie and Jack, we are four SLHS<br />

Alumni and Texas Film School Graduates. For the past year we have<br />

been creating Katy’s newest and only Animation and Filmmaking camp,<br />

Creator Camp! Our goal is to share with students the wonders of film and<br />

animation without the dullness of note taking and lectures. We designed<br />

our 3-day camps so that students will learn hands-on and in real-time,<br />

creating Special effects, Green Screen effects, Sound effects and loads<br />

more. Each day, students will come home with a new movie they created<br />

themselves and on the last day we will transform a classroom into a<br />

mock Oscars Film Festival where your child will pick their favorite film<br />

that they made to be shown on the big screen! We are running our first<br />

camps this summer and we would love to have some support from the<br />

local community to get us off to a good start. Camps are held at Mirus<br />

Academy Katy, 5561 3 rd St, Katy, TX 77493 and Each camper will receive a<br />

free shirt and goody bag. Two Sessions will be held this summer:<br />

Session 1: <strong>June</strong> 28 th -30 th : 8:30 AM-3:30 PM<br />

Session 2: July 20 th -22 nd : 8:30 AM-3:30 PM<br />

If your child is interested in filmmaking or animation please visit our site<br />

at CreatorCamp.org.<br />

ROSE THERAPEUTIC FARM AND GOAT YOGA<br />

SUMMER CAMPS<br />

ROSE Therapeutic Farm Summer Camps are an exciting way to light<br />

up any young person’s summer. Our camps provide unique, hands-on<br />

opportunities for learning, growth, and fun. Campers spend their time<br />

here immersed in the natural world, with animals and the environment.<br />

Each camp is loaded with creative, enriching activities meant to help<br />

your kiddos connect with nature and learn how to enjoy “the simple life.”<br />

This is meant to be a real farm/ranch life experience so we will get dirty!<br />

We will also be outside all day. We have a large barn where we will do our<br />

crafts, eat lunch and other activities but it is not air-conditioned. Please<br />

have your kiddos dress accordingly. If they don’t like being outdoors or<br />

getting dirty, this may not be the camp for them.<br />

* 1 to 4 day sessions available.<br />

*Our camps are geared toward children ages 6 – 12.<br />

*Each camp will have 18 or less participants. We must have at least 5<br />

campers to start each camp.<br />

Lunch can be provided or you can send a bag lunch with your kiddos.<br />

We have a cooler we will keep these in. We will have access to fresh iced<br />

water all day. Of course you are welcome to send a lunch with your kiddo<br />

if you choose.<br />

We have done everything we can to try and reopen our doors, including<br />

becoming the first theater in the country to install hospital grade UV<br />

lights in our air filtration system. We even offered a safe and distanced<br />

indoor concert as well as an indoor offering from our educational touring<br />

unit this past fall. And when those projects proved financially challenging<br />

and COVID numbers spiked again, we created “Light Up the Lot” and<br />

moved all our programming outdoors.<br />

We’ve never given up. We never will give up. But due to circumstances<br />

beyond our control, we find ourselves needing to pivot once more.<br />
