HAPPY LABOR DAY! HONORING SEPT. 11 TH Twelve years have passed since the one day that changed our beloved America forever. We will never forget Sept. 11, 2001. There are many ways we can honor the innocent lives lost on this day. Begin by saying a prayer for their souls and continue to pray for the families affected. Volunteer and give to charity and do so without conditions. Plant a tree or flowers and say a prayer. Do something special for our first response teams. Last but not least, be thankful for your many blessings and gifts.
TEACHING KIDDOS THE MEANING OF LABOR DAY How can we teach our kiddos the meaning of Labor Day? Read on: The history of Labor Day: Labor Day is celebrated on the first Monday of September. This holiday is dedicated to appreciating the contributions of the working class and how they help build our country’s strength and prosperity. Labor Day has been a national holiday since 1894 and is considered the unofficial end to summertime, families often host barbecues, go camping, have picnics or attend parades.
Football time in Texas!
Take your child to work: Take your children to work with you. Allow them to meet the people at your workplace who can talk to them about their jobs. This is a great way to expose kids to various types of work. Talk to them how each specific job is important and how each person contributes to the company and society.
Let your child work: No matter how young, you can teach kids about labor through action. Kids can chores at home - from dishes to yard work. They can babysit, deliver newspapers, care for pets or help neighbors with chores. Discuss how certain kinds of work can help other kids - becoming a tutor to younger children, teaching computer skills, volunteering at kids’ clubs or helping out at children’s centers.

HEALTHY SIDES WITH YOUR LABOR DAY BBQ! Millions of Americans are going to be grilling their favorites this Labor Day - long holiday. But what about some healthy side options? Oh yes! There are many other great things to eat while others enjoy their meat: • Tropical fruit salads - chop mangoes, strawberries, kiwi fruit, apples, pineapple, blueberries and toss with chopped walnuts. Serve super chilled and cool! • Ants on a log - a kid favorite. Spread peanut butter on celery sticks and top with raisins! • Easy Indian bruschetta - slice fresh French bread, lightly toast, spread cholesterol free butter, add chopped tomatoes mixed with chopped cilantro, salt & pepper, then top with provolone cheese, broil for 10 minutes. • Black bean salad - pan toss fresh corn, chopped red bell pepper, red onion with salt & pepper, no oil. Wash one can of black beans and toss with ingredients, fresh chopped cilantro, squeeze lime juice and enjoy!

According to Ms. Baszile, EF Foundation host families represent the diversity of American culture - with varied economic, religious and social backgrounds. Among those who embrace the exchange experience are parents looking to give their children a glimpse of the world, without having to travel the globe. In addition, there are many successful host families who have no children or adult children who no longer live at home, who are looking for new ways to connect to their communities, while gaining fresh perspectives on the world. Host family applicants undergo a screening process to ensure that they are well suited for an exchange experience. To host, one adult in the household must be at least 25 years old. Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, EF Foundation for Foreign Study is the leader in high school exchange. Committed to promoting international understanding and global awareness for over 30 years, EF Foundation brings more students to the United States each year than any other high school exchange program. Since 1979, the organization hasmatched over 100,000 enthusiastic students from around the world with caring host families across the United States. EF Foundation is designated by the United States Department of State as an Exchange Program Sponsor.

EXCHANGE STUDENTS FROM AMERICAN COUNCILS The U.S. Department of State sponsors exchange programs that bring high school students from over 50 countries from all over the world in the United State for an academic year to live with an American host family, attend high school and learn about American society. American Councils is always looking for interested and excited host families to host one of their students.

RUOK PROGRAM
Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program called “Are You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for senior citizens (over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could benefit from a daily check. A computer will generate a call each morning, at about the same time and the participant chooses a time frame. A voice will ask, “Are you OK?” After this, all they have to do is hang up the phone. If the participant goes out of town or leaves the residence for any time, you just temporarily un-subscribe and resubscribe when you return. If the call goes unanswered, the computer will call back 3 times at 15-minute intervals. If there is still no answer, the Sheriff will dispatch a deputy or the local police. They will have with them a print out of information on the person that is not responding to the calls. This program was established by FBC Sheriff Milton Wright, Commissioner’s Court and Ken Whitt (FBC Sheriff’s Citizens Academy Alumni Assoc.) in 1998. Many police chiefs in the county are also participating in the program and will proceed with the welfare check for citizens of their community. To request more information or to enroll in this free and very beneficial program, please call the Sheriff’s Dept. at 281-341-4704.

WILDLIFE
THE MEXICAN FREE-TAILED BAT
THE STATE FLYING MAMMAL OF TEXAS BY CHERYL CONLEY, VICE PRESIDENT, TWRC WILDLIFE CENTER*
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when I say “bats?” Do you think of Halloween? Do you fear they will land in your hair? Do you think all bats have rabies? Bats are not blind and they don’t intentionally land on your head. Less than 1% ever contract rabies and there’s approximately only one death per year in the USA from bat rabies. The largest colonies in the country are right here in Texas. They form colonies of millions. At dusk the bats leave their roosts in search of prey. Each bat eats 1/3 of its own weight in insects each night and it’s especially nice that they eat mosquitoes! Bats play key roles in keeping insect populations in balance. Reaching speeds of up to 50 miles per hour, they use echolocation (sound waves) to detect and catch insects. Pups are born naked and each female only produces one. About seventy percent of all pups are born during a 10-day period in June. The pups nurse for 5 to 6 weeks. They are furred and capable of flight and self-feeding at about 5 weeks. The adult Mexican free-tailed bat has short reddish, brown, gray or black velvety fur. The underside of the bat is slightly
Woodcreek Reserve September 2013
lighter. It has a wrinkled upper lip, rounded ears, large feet and a protruding tail. It’s small, only getting between 3.5 and 4.5 inches long. The wingspan is about 12 inches and they weigh about 1/2 ounce. Most Mexican free-tailed bats migrate to Mexico in October and November and return to Texas in late February. *TWRC Wildlife Center is a 33-year-old non-profit organization that rehabilitates injured and orphaned wildlife with the goal of returning healthy animals back to the wild. Through educational outreach programs and camps for children, we promote awareness of the vital role of wildlife in our community. We have two locations, one at 10801 Hammerly Blvd. in Houston and one at 1118 Pruitt Road in The Woodlands. Last year nearly 6,000 animals were admitted to our centers needing our help. If you’d like more information go to www.twrcwildlifecenter.org or call 713-468-8972.

BOARD APPROVES CONCEPTUAL DESIGN FOR PROPOSED SECOND STADIUM During its regular July meeting, the Katy ISD Board of Trustees approved the conceptual design for the proposed second stadium. The stadium project is one of three projects being considered for the District’s Student Activities Facilities referendum this fall. Members of the community, as well as Katy ISD end users and support staff attended a two-day design workshop held on June 26th - 27th and developed the conceptual design presented at the July 15th Board Work Study meeting. The second stadium would support student growth and success with additional athletic and fine arts support facilities at the secondary level within the District. PBK Architects were deemed best qualified for the stadium project, having successfully completed numerous stadium projects across the state, including multiple projects at the Rhodes stadium complex. Two other architectural firms have been selected for the STEM Center and Agricultural Sciences Center that are also components of the Student Activities Facility Proposal. For more information on the proposed second stadium, visit the Katy ISD website.

2013 - 2014 CRITERIA FOR FREE AND REDUCED PRICE MEALS Katy Independent School District announced its policy for providing free and reduced price meals for children eligible under the federal income guidelines for the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program. A copy of the policy may be viewed at www.squaremeals.com. Children living in households with incomes at or below the federally approved levels, based on household size, may be eligible for free or reduced price school meals. Transfer students approved for the program from another school district may either complete a Katy ISD application or provide
documentation of their eligibility status. Foster children who are the legal responsibility of a welfare agency or court may also be eligible for benefits regardless of the income of the household with whom they reside. The Nutrition and Food Service Department encourages parents in all eligible households to complete an online application prior to the start of school. The online application can be found at the district website at www.katyisd.org. A Free and Reduced meal application form and an information letter was also distributed in the student’s first day packet. A paper application will not need to be completed if you submitted the application online. If your child was on the program at the end of the previous school year, they were eligible for the same benefit for the first 30 operating days of the new school year or until a new application is processed. A new application is required each school year. The Nutrition and Food Service Department is located at 5364 Franz Rd, Katy, TX 77493. Staff is available Monday - Friday, 8 AM to 2:30 PM to assist parents in completing the application. Bring the names of all members of the household and their Gross Monthly Income. For any questions, call the Katy ISD Nutrition Department office at 281-396-6240. Applications are available online, at any district school and at the food service office. Applications may be submitted any time during the school year starting in August 2013. The information households provide on the application will be used for the purpose of determining meal eligibility. Application information may be verified by school officials at any time during the school year.

SUPERIOR MARKETING PLAN | ALTERNATIVE LISTING FEES | FREE MARKET ANALYSIS BRITTANEE GROCE NAMED KATY ELKS LODGE VOCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP WINNER The Katy Elks have long been known for their annual youth scholarship awards to local students; however, there is one award about which little may be known in our community. This is our State Vocational Grant program. This year, Brittanee Groce, a graduate of Morton Ranch HS received a $2,000 grant/scholarship to aid in her studies at HCC Downtown Campus in their VAST (Vocational Advancement Social Skills Training) Academy. “VAST Academy provides post-secondary transition programs and comprehensive support services which lead to meaningful credentials, employment and independence for differently-abled individuals.” As a child, Brittanee couldn’t talk and was taught sign language. Today, she not only has great mastery of the English language, she has spent a lot of time helping by reading to younger children. She still enjoys reading to others, but as with most teenagers today, her favorite pastime is texting. As a student at Morton Ranch HS, she was a “Best Buddy” to an autistic girl.
September 2013 Woodcreek Reserve
The scholarship funds presented by the Elks each year emphasize their motto: Elks Care - Elks Share. Nationally, the Elks are second only to the Federal Government in providing students with scholarship and grant funds. For anyone interested in pursuing any of the Texas Elks Scholarships for 2014, go to texaselks.org after September 15th when all current information should be posted. For further assistance, call the Katy Elks Lodge - 281-391-2763.
