Edulog Lite is Katy ISD’s new school bus tracking app that monitors the location of buses as they travel their route through Katy ISD boundaries. Katy ISD parents can now see how close their child's bus is to its designated before - or after- school stop, as well as track the bus while it is en route.
2. Online web store
A+ Pay N’ Go will allow Katy ISD parents to make payments for cafeteria meals, activity fees and a variety of other campus and district-related services. There are no transaction fees. The service also accepts credit cards and eChecks.
3. Full-day pre-kindergarten program
Full-day classes for eligible pre-K students will also begin Wednesday. Parents of preregistered pre-k students received a letter notifying them that their child is eligible to begin full day pre-k on the first day of school. The district has expanded the number of campuses offering pre-k. You can see the details here.
