SafetyProtocol Update: Gov't -Issued IDs Effective April 8th
Dear Katy ISD Parents/Guardians and Staff,
As Katy ISD continues its review of safety practices and protocols, it's essential to stress the significance of physical/hard copy government-issued identifications* for accessing campuses/facilities, student registration, and student pickup. The district is strictly enforcing this requirement and will no longer accept paper or digital copies of driver's licenses, visas, and passports at any of its campuses or facilities, for these purposes.
We greatly appreciate our community's cooperation with these safety procedures and your ongoing partnership in maintaining safe and secure environments across Katy ISD campuses and facilities.
