“We continue to provide our families with information on social-emotional topics because we know that these things can impact students’ learning and performance in school,” said Anne McHale Miller, LCSW-S, Coordinator for School Leadership and Support in Katy ISD. “This year’s offerings will be a hybrid of in-person and online opportunities.”
Katy ISD’s Legacy Parent Academy is a series of informational sessions designed to assist parents by raising awareness on social-emotional and academic topics that impact students. Visit the Legacy Parent Academy web page to learn more.
