Katy ISD Recognizes 2022-2023 “Of the Year” Employees

(KATY ISD) - Each year, Katy ISD has the honor of recognizing outstanding employees for their contributions and impact on the district at the annual “Of the Year” Awards Ceremony. This year, Katy ISD recognized 29 employees who “exemplify what it means to be a staff member in Katy ISD”. During the event, guests enjoyed performances from the Cinco Ranch Show Choir.

“Katy ISD’s employees of the year are a great example of staff members who have gone above and beyond. While many of them have achieved significant accomplishments, it’s their effort and their ‘can-do’ attitude that is the real recognition,” said Dr. Ken Gregorski, Superintendent of Schools at Katy ISD. “I am honored to work alongside these individuals who have committed to make Katy ISD one of the best school districts in the region.”
