Grange - Why Katy High School Shines

Katy High School, home of the Katy Tigers, is a cornerstone of the community, bringing together approximately 3,500 students under its iconic red and white colors. Known for its rich tradition of academic and extracurricular excellence, Katy High is more than a campus, it’s a hub where students are challenged to grow, excel, and create lifelong memories.

With a curriculum designed to meet the diverse needs of its students, Katy High offers everything from advanced placement (AP) and Pre-AP courses to dual credit classes and career/technology preparation programs. These opportunities ensure that students can challenge themselves academically while preparing for their future careers or college pathways.

And the results speak for themselves. In 2025, Katy High School earned an A rating from Niche, which rated it No. 128 out of 1,833 Best Public High Schools in Texas.

When it comes to athletics and extracurriculars, Katy High School knows how to bring its A game. As one of the top athletic programs in the state, Katy High earned the No. 7 spot on Niche’s Best High Schools for Athletes in Texas. With sports like football, baseball, soccer, basketball, volleyball, and even swimming and diving, there’s something for every aspiring athlete. And let’s not forget the legendary Katy Tigers football team, whose successes are the pride of the entire community.

Beyond the field, Katy High offers a wide range of extracurricular activities to ensure students can find their niche. From the Academic Decathlon to the National Honor Society, and service groups like Peer Mentors and Best Buddies, there’s no shortage of opportunities to get involved.

Teachers provide outstanding support to students, but it doesn’t stop there. Parents play an essential role. Through booster clubs, Friends of Katy PTA, and volunteer efforts, families actively contribute to the school’s success. From organizing events to cheering in the stands, the Katy community shows up for its Tigers. Together, this synergy between students, staff, and parents creates a culture of pride, support, and achievement.

Katy High School students don’t just have access to an outstanding education; they also benefit from community initiatives like The Grange by Johnson Development Corp. College Scholarship Program. This program offers a one-time $5,000 scholarship to two lucky seniors from Katy ISD each year, providing a financial boost for those pursuing higher education.

Grange is proud of its Katy Tigers and looks forward to watching them grow and succeed now and in the future.
