Hi Krahn Family,

This approximate time commitment is from 3:00 - 5:00 PM. Volunteers for Bus Buddies must be 18 years or older. Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. You will need to complete your KISD Volunteer Application the process typically takes 5-7 business days.

For those that are new, here is a little bit more about me. I attended Klein ISD schools growing up and knew I wanted to return back here when starting my teaching career. I student taught, taught, was an assistant principal all in Klein. This is my 5th year as Principal at Krahn Elementary. My husband Allen and I have a daughter Brinley, who turned 2 in July.

Thank you,

Mrs. Rodgers
