Greetings KHS Family!
The faculty and staff of Krum High School send a big shout out to all students for a successful completion of the first three weeks. Our campus has experienced growth this year, with 664 young people enrolled. Even with an expanding student population, we strive to work with all stakeholders in the development of our community’s young people. Thank you to everyone who attended events last week to support our students.
On Friday we completed the first three weeks grading period and on Tuesday, September 8th, our students received their first progress reports for the 2020-2021 school year. All of our teachers all have email addresses and there is a staff directory on our website. Email is often the easiest form of communication should you have a specific question regarding your student's performance in a class. Please do not hesitate to contact your student's teacher at any time.
Now that we have been in school for three weeks, if for some reason you have changed your mind regarding the instructional model you have chosen, please complete the form that is linked below. Your change will begin two weeks from the time we receive the notice in our office.
Please note, UIL updated their COVID mitigation procedures on September 1, 2020. A couple of important pieces to note from the plan include:
- Spectators, audiences, fans and media are required to wear face coverings as described in Executive Order GA-29.
- Sites are encouraged to utilize remote ticketing options to help manage capacity limitations within a maximum 50% occupancy. Paper tickets and programming should be minimized to help avoid transferable materials.
- Groups should maintain at least six feet of distance from other groups at all times, including the process of admission and seating. A group is defined as no more than 10 people including the members of the household and those persons who traveled together to the facility.
Please access the full plan at the following website: https://www.uiltexas.org/policy/covid-19/2020-2021-uil-covid-19-risk-mitigation-guidelines.
In order to maintain active communication, we will distribute this newsletter each month. We want you to stay informed about activities at our school. As always, if you have any suggestions for improvement, we are open to hearing them. We view ourselves as partners in your student's education and look forward to collaborating with you. Please feel free to contact me at michelle.pieniazek@krumisd.net.
Go Bobcats!

La facultad y el personal de Krum High School envían un gran agradecimiento a todos los estudiantes por completar con éxito las primeras tres semanas. Nuestro campus ha experimentado un crecimiento este año, con 664 jóvenes inscritos. Incluso con una población estudiantil en expansión, nos esforzamos por trabajar con todas las partes interesadas en el desarrollo de los jóvenes de nuestra comunidad. Gracias a todos los que asistieron a los eventos la semana pasada para apoyar a nuestros estudiantes.
Tenga en cuenta que UIL actualizó sus procedimientos de mitigación de COVID el 1 de septiembre de 2020. Un par de piezas importantes a tener en cuenta del plan incluyen: Se requiere que los espectadores, el público, los fanáticos y los medios de comunicación se cubran la cara como se describe en la Orden Ejecutiva GA-29. Se alienta a los sitios a utilizar opciones de emisión de boletos remotos para ayudar a administrar las limitaciones de capacidad dentro de una ocupación máxima del 50%. Los boletos impresos y la programación deben reducirse al mínimo para ayudar a evitar materiales transferibles. Los grupos deben mantener al menos seis pies de distancia de otros grupos en todo momento, incluido el proceso de admisión y asientos. Un grupo se define como no más de 10 personas, incluidos los miembros del hogar y las personas que viajaron juntas a la instalación.
