If you and your spouse are both Katy ISD employees and qualify for benefits, you need to know a few things about enrolling:

• Each of you may have coverage, but you’ll need to decide who will cover your qualified dependents.

• Neither of you can enroll for spouse life or permanent spouse life coverage, but both of you may have Supplemental Life and AD&D.

• You must enroll to have coverage—the choices you made last year DO NOT roll over to 2027! If you do not enroll by November 2, you will only have Basic Life and EAP coverage effective January 1, 2027. If you do nothing, you will not have medical or specialty coverage.

• If you’re new to the district, wait 14 days from your start date before you enroll. If you are unable to enroll after waiting 14 days, please call Benefits Helpline at 866-222-KISD (5473).

• Once you’re enrolled, or if you miss the deadline, you are not eligible to make changes to your benefits until the next Open Enrollment period, unless you experience a qualified life event.
