CINCO RANCH HIGH SCHOOL

Parents and students of the Katy Independent School District said they were met with confusion Monday on what was supposed to be the start of summer classes.

A former football star of both Cinco Ranch High School and Rice University has been sentenced to serve time in federal prison for distributing a synthetic opioid that killed another football star at Rice University in March of 2018, U.S. Attorney Jennifer B. Lowery announced.

Cinco Ranch High School is celebrating one of its senior students after he won a gold medal in the UIL state filmmakers contest. According to a press release from Katy ISD, Colten Boyles’ standout short film titled “Decaf” held the line against hundreds of the best student films from across Texas, withstanding multiple rounds of the competition as it captured the attention of judges for both its creativity and technical production and post-production editing. “For a student to produce a film of this caliber demands a steady commitment, a professional level of creativity, and a willingness to work collaboratively with others for a final product,” said Mike Marrie, Cinco Ranch video production and animation instructor. “The most attractive feature of Colten’s film is that it keeps the audience engaged and intrigued by providing what all superior films do: building appealing characters and telling a great story.”AdAccording to the release, the film depicts “a self-proclaimed detective get(ting) his only joy in life, a cup of Joe, stolen from him. He sets out on a hunt for the one responsible to then exact revenge.”Watch the full film below.
