Katy ISD Education Foundation Celebrates InvestorsÂ
The Katy ISD Education Foundation recently celebrated its family of supporters at its annual Investor Breakfast, this year at the Legacy Stadium Community Rooms. The event featured the principal and grant recipient teachers from King Elementary. Katy ISD Education Foundation Investors each pledge annual support of at least $1,000 per year. The Foundation has awarded over $2.6 million to teachers across Katy ISD through its Inspiring Imagination teacher grant program. Nearly half of the funds awarded are a direct result of the financial and personal support of its growing corps of Investors.
During the annual celebration, the board recognized new Emeritus Directors, Ken Janda and Chris Crockett for their invaluable contributions to the Katy ISD Education Foundation. Janda was present at the ceremony and received a recognition from the Foundation’s President, Matt Schomburg.
