Note from Mrs. Haworth
Good afternoon,
As we wind down this first semester, I just want to take a moment and say how grateful I am to work with such amazing students and staff each and every day.
I wish all of our families a wonderful Holiday Season filled with lots of family and friends!
Have a great evening,

Volunteer Raptor Initiative
Katy ISD requires all volunteers serving on or off-campus during or after the instructional day to register with the district through its Raptor security system.
Once registered and approved, individual volunteers can:
• Sign up as a campus volunteer by completing the volunteer recruitment form provided by your campus organization(s) or contact your campus volunteer coordinator.
• Track hours via their volunteer profile for every Katy ISD campus at which they volunteer
• The system also provides quick and easy submission of individual off-campus volunteer hours.
