School Facility Referendum Task Force Seeks Community Input
at Public Workshop

(June 24, 2010) - The School Facility Referendum Task Force, which has been working since May to develop a bond referendum package, will hold a public workshop to seek community input on the proposed bond referendum scenario to determine what adjustments may need to be made prior to presenting a final recommendation to the Board of Trustees - and ultimately the Katy community. The workshop will be held on June 29, from 6:30 - 9:00 p.m., in room 1200 of the district's Education Support Complex, located at 6301 S. Stadium Lane.

Community members are encouraged to RSVP online so that the district will be able to accommodate all those who are wishing to participate.
Workshop participants will be given an overview of the proposed bond referendum scenario, which currently stands at $459 million after being pared down from a larger list of projects totaling more than $600 million. Following the presentation, members of the public attending the workshops will work in table groups to provide input as to what they believe are the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed scenario, as well as list any projects they believe should, or should not, be part of the final package.
After the public workshop, the Referendum Task Force will meet again on July 8 to make any adjustments to the package that are necessary based on the community's input prior to submitting a final recommendation to the Board of Trustees in July.
Community members who cannot attend the workshops, but would like to provide their input can do so electronically through an online survey. The survey will be open from June 23 - July 5.

Baseball:

Mayde Creek Varsity Baseball season ended in the 1st round of the playoffs after a hard fought series against Memorial High School. Congratulations to the Team for a GREAT Season!

 

Track:

Craishia Washington competed in the UIL State Track Meet last weekend.  It is a big accomplishment to make it to the state meet.  Only eight athletes in each event make it.  Unfortunately Craisha had a false start in the 100M dash, and the rules state that after a false start you are then disqualified.  She did show a lot of resilience by bouncing back to take 6^th place in the 200M dash.    She has had a very good season and represented Mayde Creek well.  We are very proud of her.  This is only her Junior season and we look forward to a great Senior season.  Thanks for all the support.

The Powerlifting Banquet will be on Thursday, May 27^th at 7:00 P.M. at CiCi’s Pizza.  CiCi’s is located on Fry Rd. and Morton. 3154 North Fry Road.
