LETTERLAND Bouncy Ben brought a bounce house for some bouncing fun! Keller ISD celebrated their 2nd annual Letterland Day in April 2019 with over 1500 Keller students attending and approximately 5,500 guests. Campuses and district staff worked together to bring Letterland to life for our youngest learners. Each campus sponsored a letter of the alphabet and provided opportunities for children and their families to refine and grow their understanding of English. Vendors were on hand to offer experiences and opportunities for families to learn more about all that Keller ISD and it’s community has to offer. Congratulations to Florence Elementary who had the highest percentage of attendance in 2019.

We hope that you will be a part of KISD Letterland Day 2020, so mark your calendars for April 25, 2020 and we will see you there! Will your campus be our next winner?
