To kick off Homecoming next week - we hosted a tailgate themed nacho bar luncheon for staff today. Huge thank you to our incredible KHS Culinary department that sponsored some delicious homemade chips, queso, taco meat and all of the desserts for us! Everyone loved them!! Then we had yummy salsa donated from Joe Luis Knock-Out Catering . Big thanks to them!! We combined the festivities with Dolly Parton day and offered up $25 to the most spirited person dressed up. Mrs. Thompson went all out and won the GC. 🤪👏🏼😂 We are super thankful for all of our amazing staff and can’t wait for Homecoming week in KISD!!! 🐾💚
