Item 6
That'll be a nice thing.
And let me just say a lot of the reason for our success is from our cornerstone investor, BP,
who has continued to contribute $40,000 for this BP STEM grant program.
I do want to take a moment to ask you to thank BP tonight.
BP is represented this evening by Iris Cross, Senior Director, State and Local Affairs and Executive,
director BP Foundation Inc Maria Vizzo communications and external affairs
director at BP and Marta Vassell who serves on our foundation board would you
all please stand
and just one more one more moment I'd like to share a proud moment of coming
coming together. This month our board voted unanimously to stand alongside KDISD and its extensive Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. We did understand that the board of trustees and the district was in a strong position to support facility recovery, so our board in consultation with Superintendent Hint launched a special project to focus on the individuals in our district, a one-time fundraiser as required by our board of directors. As a special project, 100% of our Harvey relief fund will be
be distributed to Katy ISD staff, students, and their families adversely
affected by flooding in their homes. The foundation will collect donations
through mid-October. While this is happening, Katy ISD campuses will be
identifying the students and staff in need of support. No Harvey funds will
commingle with any other foundation initiatives. Collection of funds will end
in October and be dispersed in November. As of today, almost $63,000 has been
raised. I know many of you in this room have contributed so thank you. I
sincerely, sincerely appreciate the generosity in helping us support our
Katy community in this extraordinary time of need. And now one of the most
important reasons we're here it's to honor the wonderful 2017-2018 Inspiring
Imagination Teacher Grant recipients. So to do that I'm going to welcome Janet
Tice. Janet and Coach Clayton I have a freshman so you have to be there at
least three more years. Madam President, Board Members, Dr. Hint it's exciting to
present to you year five the KDIC Education Foundation Teacher Grant
Program. Before I do that I want to thank Tara for her leadership, Vice President
Susan Smith, Treasurer Ken Yonda, Dr. Hinn is our secretary, and there are a number of board members in the back of the room and quite a few out in the hall.
But we have extraordinary leadership just like you guys, and it is a sweet partnership, and we are incredibly grateful to them.
Had new five board members tonight in an orientation who are joining us.
So that board continues to grow and continues to thrive.
Ms. Doyle, thank you for representing the Board of Trustees in our circle.
We're grateful for that.
As Tara said, we gave away $284,000.
That affects 32,680 students this school year.
263 teachers at 34 campuses all around Katy ISD.
I am going to introduce the teachers, and they're going to come in here and wave at you.
And if you'll just applaud for them and celebrate them.
We did not give away every grant that we could.
Not every application that was submitted was deemed worthy of funding.
These folks who come in here tonight have survived a serious, intense scoring process.
It means their application, not only did they have a great idea, they wrote it well, they presented it well,
and somewhere in there their heart and their passion for teaching and kids came through.
And so they really are truly to be celebrated. So are you ready? Oh, the door's locked.
We locked them out.
We can save the money.
Before I move on, I want to thank my girls.
Heather Sanders and Tammy Stringer and Marlene Alban are here tonight.
And they are gracious hostesses, and I just could not be more proud.
I can walk away, and this thing runs like you wouldn't believe just because of them
and their commitment and their passion.
So, Ms. Miller, are you ready?
