HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

MARKET TEAM GENERAL MANAGER Kathie Snyder EDITOR Danica Lloyd REPORTER Dave Manning

FROM KATHIE: In our front-page story this month, we dive into what actions Cy-Fair ISD leaders have taken, and continue to work on, to keep our kids secure while on campus. We also review House Bill 3, also known as the Texas School Safety Act, that was signed into law June 14. Our children are our future, and we appreciate all that is being done to help keep them safe. Kathie Snyder, GENERAL MANAGER
