FROM OUR FRIENDS AT PAETOW HS:
FROM OUR COUNSELOR:
Parents,
Every Ron Clark house at Bethke adopts a month that aligns with their character trait and participates is a service project. This month is ALTRUISMO’S month and they are going to have a little competition for the month of October!!
We are going to have a winter clothing drive and donate our items to Katy Christian Ministry. Each house will compete against each other and have a special SURPRISE at the end of October. Every item donated will make a difference, so please consider donating and helping us spread warmth and kindness this season!
Boxes will be placed by the Library for students to drop off the new winter clothing items.
Thank you,
Mr. Daniels

KATY ISD - "FOOD FOR FAMILIES" CAMPAIGN:
Katy ISD’s Partners in Education invites you to support families who could use a little extra help during the winter break through our Food for Families campaign. Campuses identify students in need, and with support from the community, Partners in Education will provide grocery gift cards and a heartfelt note. Each gift is delivered by a campus staff member, reminding students that their Katy ISD family cares.
Help us turn a gift card into something more:
