Katy ISD families may choose for students to be educated in person or virtually for the 2020 fall semester, Superintendent Ken Gregorski said at the regular June 22 board meeting and in a June 22 Facebook video.
"I like the fact that we are going to be able to give our community ... a choice for our parents next school year: a choice to resume in-person instruction and send your children back to schools, or we're going to be able to provide an online option," he said at the board meeting.
A survey—that will close June 25—is being emailed to parents for their thoughts, Gregorski said. Parents do not have to decide now on the option for their children; this survey is asking for their feelings and perceptions about the options amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“We need to put those [in-person and remote learning] plans together,” he said. “And then we want to share those plans with our community and say, ‘These are what the models look like when we return instruction in August.’ We've got about two months to get that in place before the kids come."
