Week 4 Learning!
Please visit https://tinyurl.com/bethkeonline to access your child’s Week 4 Activity Boards.
Remember that the district choice boards are also available if your student needs additional activities. Our goal is to provide learning and enrichment for our students without creating undue stress on families during this already stressful time.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your child's teacher.
A Note from Our Counselors:
Hello, Bethke Bison!
We want to take this opportunity to reach out and let everyone know that we are here to support everyone in our Bison community. Each week in the Bison Bulletin, we will provide short yet relevant information from our district and a link to request to speak with a counselor. A social-emotional learning lesson will be added to the Bethke Weekly Learning Choice Board beginning the week of April 13.
We love and miss our Bison herd and are here to support you J
Ms. Johnson and Mrs. Walsdorf

Evening Meals at MRHS
Dear Katy ISD Parents/Guardians and Staff,
On Monday, April 13, the BE A CHAMPION (BAC) organization will begin distributing grab and go meals at the front entrance of Morton Ranch High School. The late day meal service is offered Monday through Friday from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. or until supplies last. All children are eligible to participate in the free meal program. BAC meals are individually packaged, and the ‘Grab and Go’ drive thru service does not require a family member to get out of their car.
BE A CHAMPION INC was founded in 2001 by James Hong and Jaron Barganier, a Mayde Creek High School graduate. BAC is a sports, education and nutrition outreach program designed to support Houston area youth that may be in need.
Questions regarding the meal program, please call BAC at 281-833-3129 or email at info@BACHAMP.org
