REMINDER TO PARENTS
Per Katy ISD Student Handbook:
Keep your child at home if he/she has a fever of 100
degrees or higher, is vomiting or has diarrhea.
Students must be symptom free for at least 24 hours
without preventative medication. (For a student sent
home from the clinic, at a minimum, the 24-hour rule
begins when the student is signed out from school.)
You may view the student handbook through MGE’s website @
On Friday, February 14th, we will celebrate Friendship
Day. Students will have an opportunity to exchange
notes of friendship or kindness, or Valentine cards
with their classmates at the end of the day. *Remember that this is not one of our two party
days so we will not distribute cookies, cupcakes or treats of any kind.
Since all cards/notes will be distributed at the end of
the day, take time to read and enjoy them when your
child arrives home.
*This is voluntary, so if you do not wish for your child
to participate in this exchange in any manner, please
notify your child’s teacher by note or email.
In Observance of Presidents’ Day,
Monday, February 17th, is a Student Holiday.
