Congratulations to Ms. Eilyn Martinez, Front Desk Receptionist, our Paraprofessional of the Year!
The Campus Paraprofessional of the Year is selected by a nomination and final vote process by the school staff. Ms. Martinez is the epitome of customer service. In her role at the front desk, she routinely manages many activities at once – greeting visitors with a smile, answering phone calls, ensuring that parents and visitors have the proper identification, checking-in parents and visitors, supporting front office staff with tasks that need to be completed, etc. She is always warm, welcoming, and efficient.

CLASS OF 2023- GRADUATION CEREMONY FIREWORKS
This year, for the first time, the district will host a brief 45-second fireworks display at the conclusion of each graduation ceremony. Graduation ceremonies historically end somewhere between 9:30 p.m. and 9:55 p.m., depending on the size of the class. The safety of our Katy ISD community is our number one priority. The district has contracted with a professional pyrotechnics company to administer each firework display. That company is also providing safety staff to ensure those operating the display, as well as the audience viewing the display, are protected from any potential hazards. The pyrotechnics company, as well as our school district, has obtained all required licensing and permitting through the City of Katy. Graduation ceremonies are scheduled nightly from Thursday, May 18 through Friday, May 26, at Legacy Stadium. Information about the Katy ISD Class of 2023 graduations.

Parents can access the state’s Family Portal for assessment results by using their child’s Unique Student Access Code. Parents may utilize the Parent Directions To Access State Testing Results (ENG./SPA.) document located on the Katy ISD Department of Research, Assessment, and Accountability website. Final test results will be available in the Family Portal by the end-of-day listed in the chart below:
