            • 2025-2026 Algebra 1 Math Camp
              The Beckendorff Junior High math department is pleased to be offering a summer Algebra 1 math camp for students registered to take HS Algebra in the Fall of 2025.

              WHAT: Our math camp is for students who have completed 7th KAP math or successfully passed the CBE for 8th grade math. This camp will review prerequisite skills from 8th grade math that will help students transition more easily into the first six weeks of HS Algebra 1.

              WHEN: Wednesday July 23rd and Thursday July 24th

              TIMES: You will pick only one – AM (9:00 – 12:00) OR PM (1:00 – 4:00) on each day

              WHO: Only BDJH students who are enrolled to take Algebra 1 for HS credit in the Fall of 2025.

              COST: $25 total for the two-day sessions (total of 6 hours).

              WHEN TO REGISTER: You can register your child using the following link: https://forms.gle/g9cpCnRytnRnmPGF6 This link will take you to a Google form to be filled out with your child’s information. A Pay-n-Go link will be at the end of this form which will allow you to pay for the camp session you have chosen. Once you have completed both the Google registration form and camp payment, you will be officially registered. We will accept registration applications all throughout the summer based on availability.

              NOTE: There will be a total of 4 Algebra sessions available with a capped size of 26 students per session. We will make every effort to place your child in the camp time requested (ie: AM vs PM). The Google form registration is time-stamped, so the earlier you register, the more likely you are to get your preferred time slot for your child.

              FAQ: How do I know if a spot in the Algebra math camp has been reserved for my child?

              ANSWER: Once you have completed the Google form registration and have paid the math camp fee through Pay-n-Go, you will get two email confirmations. One will be from Pay-n-go stating that your fee has been paid, and the second email will immediately generate from the Google form stating that you have successfully submitted your child’s information. If you get both of those emails, then your child will have reserved a spot in our math camp.

              I will update the Google form periodically during the summer to post notifications of any closed sessions once they are full. An email with your child’s time and teacher assignment will be sent approximately 2 weeks before the start of math camp.

              For security purposes, on January 15, 2025, you will be required to login to MyKaty Cloud (MKC) to access Home Access Center (HAC). This new step will require you to set up Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and will only apply to guardians or students that have never logged into MKC. For help with MFA setup, please go to this article. 

              You will use the same username and password credentials in MyKaty Cloud (MKC) that you currently enter for HAC. Katy ISD encourages you to log into MyKaty Cloud (MKC) to access HAC now.

              PARENT-DEFINED GRADE NOTIFICATIONS  

              Katy ISD Parents and/or Guardians can view their child’s grades in the Home Access Center at any time. On the Grades page, you can access your child’s most recent progress report (IPR) and report card grades. On the Classwork page, you can setup personalized alerts for your child’s class averages. Based on the parent-defined percentage (%), you will receive an alert when your child’s average falls below or rises above a certain threshold.

              PERFORMANCE MONITORING

              All Katy ISD parents/guardians are encouraged to use the Home Access Center (HAC) to review their child’s academic progress on a routine basis. As the 2024-2025 school year comes to close, take time to review all current grades, report cards, and teacher comments and/or recommendations. If your child is in need of support, speak with your child to identify their greatest area(s) of need, communicate with your child’s teacher, and, if needed, review summer learning opportunities. If you need assistance logging in to HAC, this guide will walk you through the steps.
