Enrichment

The state-of-the-art Centennial Complex includes four classrooms, a Studio

Theatre, and a multi- purpose air-conditioned gymnasium. This facility has

fulfilled many needs of the student body at Kelly including a new band and

drama program. All-school Celebrations of the Eucharist, drama presentations,

and athletic tournaments are just a few of the events Kelly is now able to offer.

 

The science laboratories and the acquisition of up-to-date equipment provide

the means of using the most effective methods for instruction and learning in

laboratory-oriented experiences. The curriculum is comprehensive, sequential,

and recognizes the varied level skills of students. Students are expected to go

beyond the levels of memorization of facts and to develop and demonstrate

their intellectual capacities to the extent of their capabilities. Kelly students and

faculty have won numerous awards for their environmental efforts including

"Clean Texas 2000," The Texas Governor’s Award for Environmental

Excellence.

 

Instant information retrieval using the latest in electronic technology is available

to all students in the "Buddy" Lefler, Jr. Information Center. Students have

daily access to the automated online catalog, Internet, ProQuest Select’s

electronic periodical’s full text, networked CD-ROM programs, and an Electric

Library. A network of computers in the center gives students an option of

conducting independent research. We have 3 full-sized computer labs

that provide word processing,

desktop publishing, programming, and the use of many software applications

to reinforce the materials being taught in the various curriculum areas.
