First Ever Online Auction for Casey's Kids
KHES is excited to host a district wide online Auction for Casey’s Kids this year. The Auction is scheduled to run from Feb. 9th – 13th. All proceeds will benefit Casey’s Kids. Some of the exciting items we have up for auction include: Family 4 pack to Schlitterbauhn Water Park, family 4 pack to Disney California, Silpada jewelry and much more! We will have the online auction link added to KHES main webpage and also on the Keller ISD main page in the next few weeks. Mark your calendars; you won’t want to miss this!
If you are interested in helping or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact our counselor, Stephen Smith.
Razzle Dazzle Hat Day
The Storybook Character parade is coming!
Students and teachers can dress up as their favorite storybook character. Please have your child bring a copy of the book with their favorite character and include the name of their character on a sign. Make it fun and creative! Use items around your home. Please do not feel you need to spend any money for a costume.
To support students’ feelings of safety and security in our building, violent or frightening costumes are not acceptable. No weapons or dangerous-looking items will be permitted to accompany a costume.
The parade will begin immediately following announcements. Afterward, all students will attend an assembly and listen to storyteller, author & illustrator, Michael Sterns.
The Keller ISD Film Festival is back and looking for student filmmakers to show off their creative talents behind and in front of the camera.
Students have the chance to be honored at an Awards Ceremony on May 12, 2015, hosted at a new venue: the spectacular Alliance Cinemark XD Movie Theater. Students can win trophies, certificates, prizes, and more!
Also new this year is a category for Vine videos. Students are invited to produce an engaging and creative six-second video using nothing more than their smart device camera.
For more information on the Film Fest, including details on how to submit your entries, visit www.KellerISD.net/Film
