Tays JH Update #5
May 4, 2016
A Note from Dr. Mitzner
Thank you in advance for your understanding as my administrative assistant, Kathryn Fix, and I are the only full-time Tays Junior High staff members.
We will begin communicating via enews on Wednesdays (This is a practice that we will continue throughout the next school year.) We will put the link to this update in the enews as well as placing it on our website (http://www.katyisd.org/campus/tjh/Pages/default.aspx) and social media sites.
If you have a question or a comment, feel free to fill out our Tays Parent Survey https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TaysParentFeedback
There is a place for you to offer suggestions and ask questions.
By creating the Tays Update in this format, we are able to include links as well as pictures and videos that cannot be done using the enews system. I am trying to put all the resources in this location so that it is easy for you to find what you are looking for.
We have hired 77 staff members and have 29 to go!! If you have been anxiously watching the building go up, mark your calendars for the Community Open House on Friday, August 12th from 5 - 8 pm. More details to come!
Looking forward to meeting each one of you!!
Dr. Kris Mitzner

TJH Athletes (7th and 8th grade students)
We are pleased to invite athletes to attend the Tompkins Strength and Conditioning Camp. This is an excellent way to keep your athlete in shape over the summer and ready for the upcoming athletics offerings at Tays Junior High. Please click on the link below for information and registration for this camp. All students wishing to participate in athletics (Grades 7-8) will need to have a physical on file. We recommend that you have a physical from your family doctor, but if you are in need of one please click on the link below for information on when physicals are available for a nominal fee.
