In Klein ISD a new Elementary School is going to open in the Fall by the name of Frank Elementary. It will be located in Gleannloch Farms and will have kids from Hassler, and Khorville (sp) that will make up its population.

The Klein policy, until recently was that they did not provide any playground equipment for any new schools built. That policy has fortunatly changed, and Klein has also made this retroactive for other schools in the district that were lacking in what would be considered standard playground equipment. This action has been led by a group of parents in Klein and Klein Board Member Larry Allen. The District, meaning Dr. Cain to their credit has now revised its policy and will be funding a portion of money to certain area campuses for Playground equipment.

Now, playground equipment is very expensive and Klein has done a great job getting this process off the ground. But help is needed. The parents at Frank Elementary School have put together a fund raising campaign to raise money for Frank Elementary for playground equipment to be installed for the kids on the first day of school. Right now a Golf Tournament has been organized on June 11, 2007 at Augusta Pines Golf Club to help raise money for this new equipment. We need Golfers!

Please if you have a business, would like to play, donate, get information or do anything to help out this cause which will have nothing but a positive impact on the District and the Community please send me a PM and I will get information to you about helping. This is for a good casue and hope that you decide to participate in some way.

So let me get this straight, Klein ISD will be putting playground equipment in future Elementary Schools that are built?

That is almost correct. From this point forward Klein ISD will be allocating money to purchase playground equipment for any new Elementary School. In March Klein did a study/inventory off all Elementary Schools in the District on Playground equipment finding out which ones were up to standards, and which ones were not. 5 campuses were found lacking and awarded money from the District via direction from the School Board to purchase new or additional playground equipment. And all future campuses will be funded.

Frank Elementary Parents are raising money to purchase equipment for the fall and part of that fund raising is a Golf Tournament this June. GOLFERS ARE NEEDED!!!
