recently met, at Brazos Valley Schools Credit Union, to plan for their upcoming calendar of events. KARE’s theme for the 2019-2020 school year is “KARE – Solving the Puzzle for an A+ Retirement”. All retired public school employees are invited to celebrate Hooky Day on Wednesday, August 14, 2019 from 1:00-3:00 PM at Katy ISD’s Education Support Complex, 6301 S. Stadium Lane, Room 1200. All public school employees who retired under the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) are welcome to attend and bring a retired educator, friend or neighbor who is not a current member to meetings. KARE represents anyone who has worked in a school district and retired through TRS. This includes all employees from custodian to superintendent. Others interested in supporting the goals of the Texas Retired Teachers Association (TRTA) are welcome to join as associate members. Reservations are required. Call Lee Ann Nuckles at 832-594-7533.
KARE will also host a Spirit Night Scholarship Fundraiser at Abuelo’s Mexican Restaurant (24600 Katy Freeway #1020, Katy, 77493) on Tuesday, July 30 from 5:00 – 10:00 PM. Abuelo’s will donate a portion of the sales to benefit the Katy Area Retired Educators Scholarship Fund.
