And the winner is

Klein Pines

The bond committee was supposed to have another meeting last night. Anybody hear anything about it? I'm wondering if Whitehead's wish to move the Klein High students to the new school is still the plan that the bond committee is going forward with, or whether anyone on the bond committee has come up with an alternate plan.

I don't know but heres Dates of the other Bond meetings anyway

Bond Meeting times and Dates

That is one way to look at it, but rationally speaking they have to relieve overcrowding at KF and the only way to do it is to take those residents on the nearest side to the next school and send them there. The departure of those neighborhoods won't have any effect on KFHS other than allowing immediate enrollment relief, enabling a higher student-teacher ratio and more individual instruction and attention for kids that desparately need it.

They could build a new High School south of the Beltway

I think it makes a lot of sense. KF may sit next to GF, but it might as well be a world away. Having grown up there and having a fondness for that neighborhood and the ones around it, I hope they do it. It'll be a great thing for that area and the district overall.

I agree KFHS is now a gheto

I'm sure it's because they try to cater to all the Klein High residents. They don't wanna ruffle and feathers and keep them happy. Too much money there.

That because KHS is the flagship school of KISD

We are a KISD homeowner and taxpayer. We chose to move specifically to the Klein Collins attendance zone when it came time for my children to begin high school.

This is our fourth year, and the body of students has continued to increase drastically! My kids are constantly complaining of not being able to get food at lunch (lines too long), school bus is way too crowded, and the crowding in-between classes.

Personally we are aware of numerous students that have lied and/or faked paperwork to get registered to attend KCHS. My question is: what are school districts doing to enforce, or investigate this problem? Do they really care if a student is attending their school illegally? I realize they don't have the manpower to check out every student, but some type of safeguard has got to be in place. I know of a student faking a utility bill -- all while living in the Klein Forest zone, or another student completed a lease document with their friend that lived in the KC zone -- all while living in Spring ISD.

I understand that they want to attend KCHS for all the same reasons that we moved here. It would've been better for our family to stay in the home we moved from (in Spring ISD, Westfield HS), but we did the right thing, and it's very disheartening and frustrating when others totally lie and cheat to be there. I ask, why have attendance zones, if they're not enforced?

Couldn't be any worse than the Doerre Warriors.

how about the Klein Memorial Spartans

Is there a chance that rezone will include Greenwood Forest? Any discussion surrounding that?

I don't know

Are they still planning on shifting enrollment Westward to alleviate overcrowding and future growth in the KF zone?

I had read in the PASA report that neighborhoods on the North side of FM 1960 (and some right on the South side) would be rezoned to Klein in order to make room for additional growth in that Southern part of the District that stretches all the way to Inwood Forest.

Yes

If they do I hope they put stalls in the restrooms.

Wow that bad

When #5 opens it will be named Klein High School for two years. So naming it is a mute point for at least 5-6 years.

They could just rennavate and add on to KHS

KISD could choose 3 or 4 names and then choose the one with the highest # of votes

The Klein Klink Colonels

There's a higher chance the mascot would be a big cat

Klein Bearkats

Klein Oak Panthers

Klein Collins Tigers

Klein Forest Golden Eagles

District Alternative Education Program.

It's Disciplinary Alternative Education Program I Just Looked it up in the Student Handbook

Didn't Anna Nicole's husband own that property??

No

You're right, my bad, the current building being used by students and being proposed by the bond committee for demolition is 45 years old, not 65 years old. BTW, any idea what a TEP/DAEP program is? It is listed on the bond proposal to be built concurrent with the re-build of Klein High for a proposed cost of $23 million. The Klein High re-build is already over $133 million in proposals, with inflation expected to add to that. Un-friggin'-believable!!

TEP=Therapeutic Education Program

Special Ed

At one of the bond committee meetings, someone gave some background information about Klein High School. They said that the original building had been built in 1963, making it 35 years old, not over 65 years old. Maybe you're thinking of the original one-room schoolhouse, but not the school currently located at Steubner Airline & Louetta.

The School is over 65 years old. The modern building is 45 years old. If it was 35 years old it would have been built in 1973.

How did you find out.

You didn't know who the prinicpal was I Did't know.

Has anyone mentioned yet the location of the site of the proposed new stadium?

I belive that it's by Krimmel.

Are you going to email the results of this poll to KISD board members

I'll think about it

Hey Bearkat are you a student at KHS.

Who's Larry whitehaed

He is the Principal at KHS

I think Larry Whitehead had something to do with that

Klein Coves

I like it

The Stadium was built in 1967 and has a capacity of 8,356

Site of the state record, 109 yard interception return by Klein's Jason Hebert in 1996.

they could add on to Klein Oak or Klein Collins.

when they can remodel the current building to meet the needs of the community and students for half the cost.

There is no more room on KHS campus and it could meen less parking spaces for Klein Memorial Stadium.

You could always vote no.

all the high Schools are over crowded

I meent the Tree, not the town

l My vote goes for Kleinloch Farms or E.A. "Squatty" Lyons High

OR

Lyle Lovett HS

By Board Policy of the district, all high Schools must have Klein as the first word in honor of Adam Klein.
