At its third meeting, the Katy ISD Community Bond Advisory Committee focused on technology in the classroom and campus security improvements for a prospective November bond package.
The committee heard presentations on the benefits of a one-to-one student to device ratio in classrooms and discussed updated campus security standards at an April 12 meeting.
A press release states a one-to-one student-device ratio would ensure students have access to necessary classroom resources. Myriam Morales, special education team leader at McRoberts Elementary, said campus officials noticed a positive impact after improving device access for students.
“The transition was seamless from planned paper to online classroom activities, lessons and assessments. The loss of instructional time also decreased substantially,” Morales said.
