The district unveiled two methods of learning: on-campus and virtual, also known as the Katy Virtual Academy. Parents and students who want to enroll in Katy Virtual Academy may do it between July 20 and August 5.
Students who choose on-campus learning will attend school on a revised bell schedule, as additional time has been added to all schedules due to enhanced cleaning. Students who rely on transportation may need to adjust their times accordingly.
Staff and faculty members also have a separate page that highlights health and safety protocols such as mask wearing, frequent cleaning procedures and student safety.
Katy ISD’s first day of school is August 19. To learn more about the website and how they plan to reopen, click here.
