COVID-19 Update
In true Aristoi fashion, our faculty and staff did a swift pivot when COVID-19 closed Aristoi's campuses. Within less than a week our faculty moved to online learning for our students, and our staff began working remotely from home. Both Mr. Boling, Head of Elementary - Katy, and Mrs. Locheed, Head of Upper School, are proud to share that throughout the remote learning. Aristoi had 98% student participation ( other Texas Independent School Districts reported 42% ). That is an incredible accomplishment and could not have happened without teamwork, coordination, and perseverance.

Facts to Know
  • 45 electronic devices were deployed to students to continue remote learning
  • 98% of students participated in distance learning
  • Aristoi PTO held its first ever Teacher Appreciation Carpool Drive By
  • Teachers utilized Zoom for tutorials, seminars and enrichment
  • Senior theses were presented via Zoom
