What an action-packed week for our Kleb students! Our scholars tackled the STAAR reading and science tests, showing their hard work and preparation throughout the year. Meanwhile, our athletes kicked off their first week of competition in soccer, swim, and tennis, representing Kleb with determination and school spirit. The Klein ISD Fine Arts Festival took place this weekend, celebrating the creative talents across our district, where our student work was highlighted and celebrated alongside creative talents across our district. Additionally, several of our aspiring writers attended the Young Writers Convention, honing their craft and connecting with fellow student authors. From academics to athletics to the arts, our students continue to excel in all areas - we couldn't be prouder of their diverse achievements and dedication!

Pentathlon Team Shines at Regionals  🏆

Congratulations to our Pentathlon team for their outstanding performance at the Regional Pentathlon Tournament! The whole team showed incredible commitment and dedication throughout their preparation and competition. We're especially proud to celebrate 6th grader Kosisochukwu Abolo, our district silver medalist, and Sadaf Mahreen, our regional bronze medalist. These individual achievements reflect the hard work and team spirit of all our student athletes. Way to represent Kleb with excellence - the entire team should be proud of their efforts!

Kleb PHS Students Spread Easter Joy 🍪

Our amazing Kleb Principles of Human Services (PHS) students showed their generous hearts by baking over 300 homemade chocolate chip cookies for Vibrant Assisted Living Community! Throughout the week, students worked together in the kitchen, demonstrating incredible teamwork while preparing these special Easter treats for local residents. Principal Mrs. Payne and PHS teacher Ms. Hayes had the honor of personally delivering the cookies, proudly representing our school's commitment to community service.

Projects like this showcase how our students use their talents to make a real difference in our community. Opportunities like these remind us of the importance of giving back and using our skills to create positive impact.

Dear Bearcub Students and Parents:

Kleb will be celebrating our students' hard work and growth this year with various activities and celebrations, including 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade campus celebrations, indoor and outdoor games, and field day activities. These celebrations will begin the last week in May.

Throughout the year, we have communicated the Kleb Core and Matrix to our students. To ensure we finish the year strong, we are asking that all students maintain both academic and behavioral excellence. The following criteria have been established for participation in end-of-year activities and celebrations:

Criteria to Attend All Activities:

Beginning April 13, 2026:

Most of the events will feature games and activities similar to those offered in Physical Education classes. Students who do not meet the criteria above, or who choose not to participate, will have alternate activities available.

We look forward to a rewarding and successful end of the year with our Bearcubs.

Kleb Intermediate Administration
Excellence in All, For All, By All.

Kleb athletes, families, and fans:

Please visit www.klebintathletics.com for Sports, Athletic Forms, Schedules, Announcements, Tickets, and more.

Cell phones may only be used before arriving on campus and after leaving for the day. During school hours, students are expected to keep their phones, smartwatches, and headphones stored out of sight in their backpacks before entering the building and throughout the day. Personal devices are not allowed in hallways, classrooms, restrooms, or the cafeteria.

Key points to remember:

• Students must put their phones, headphones, and smartwatches in their backpacks or purses before entering the building; devices should not be in their hands or pockets.

Safety is our top priority at Kleb. At the start of the school year, every student will receive a new ID badge. All students are required to wear their ID badge visibly around their neck on a lanyard, with their name and photo clearly displayed. This policy helps ensure the safety of all Klein ISD students and is part of our dress code.

If a student arrives at school without their ID badge on, they must purchase a temporary ID band for $1 at the ID station in the cafeteria before school. Consequences reset at the start of each grading period. Here is the sequence of consequences for not wearing the ID badge:

1st: Purchase temporary ID ($1), warning
2nd: Purchase temporary ID ($1), parent contact
3rd: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 1 school detention
4th: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 2 school detentions
5th: Purchase temporary ID ($1), 3 school detentions OR 1 Saturday school
6th: Purchase permanent ID ($5), 1 day in-school suspension (ISS)
Additional Offenses: Considered major non-compliance

Kleb administration reserves the right to adjust consequences as needed.

A student is considered tardy if they are not inside the doorway of the classroom at the time the bell finishes ringing to signal the beginning of class.

Tardy Consequences: Tardy counts start over at the beginning of each week. Consequences are as follows:

1 Tardy: Free
2 Tardies: Warning
3 Tardies: 1 day before/after school detention
4 Tardies: 2 days before/after school detention
5 Tardies: 3 days before/after school detention
6 or more Tardies: 1 day in-school suspension (ISS)

Kleb Administration reserves the right to adjust consequences at any time.

Students who arrive more than 15 minutes late to class will be considered absent without permission (truant), and a discipline referral will be submitted.

Please be advised that the dress code will be enforced starting from day one. Some important points to remember include: no head coverings, hats, bandanas, or similar items are allowed; all shirts and shorts must be of appropriate length.

Please refer to the Student Handbook [here] for our dress code guidelines. To help maintain a positive and respectful school environment, students are expected to follow the dress code. If the dress code is not followed, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken in accordance with the student code of conduct.

Please note that fast food items and food deliveries will not be allowed or accepted during the school day.

Students may bring water bottles with closed lids to school. Please make sure the lids are securely closed to prevent spills.

To help prevent spills and keep our hallways safe from slipping hazards, please do not bring open containers or cups with straws to school. Closed bottles or spill-proof containers are the best choice for staying hydrated without accidents. Thank you for helping us maintain a clean and safe environment for everyone!
