New Katy ISD Elementary School to Open This Fall
Beginning in the fall of 2014, the Katy Independent School District will open the doors to a brand-new elementary school for families in the west Houston master-planned community of Cross Creek Ranch.
Located at FM 1463 and Flewellen Oaks Lane, the new school will serve families in one of the nation’s top-selling master-planned communities. According to the Katy ISD, the new school will have the capacity to service just over 1,000 students with 60-70 teachers and support staff.
“Our schools are A-plus at every grade level,” states Rob Bamford, general manager of the award-winning, 3,200-acre community. “Time and again we hear from residents who state ‘quality of schools’ as the top reason they choose Cross Creek Ranch.”
Residents currently attend Shafter Elementary of the Katy ISD and Huggins Elementary of the Lamar Consolidated ISD.
Nestled in a lush, natural setting minutes west of the Grand Parkway off FM 1093, Cross Creek Ranch is a peaceful retreat where active lifestyles and homes from award-winning builders come together to create an unmatched quality of life. More than 30,000 trees have been planted in the community since 2006 and close to half of its 1,000 homes are adjacent to native naturalized landscape, designated trails and parks.
Cross Creek Ranch’s resort-style amenities include the Cross Creek Water Park, a spacious fitness center and sports complex with tennis courts, basketball court, sand volleyball court and playgrounds for all ages. The community also is home to the Essence Café, a charming, quaint dining spot open to the public serving a variety of breakfast and lunch favorites.
Other distinguishing amenities include Flewellen Creek Park, which eventually will wind approximately 150 acres through the heart of Cross Creek Ranch, a disc golf course, a fenced one-acre dog park and an onsite Fitness Director and Lifestyle Director who coordinate resident events.
In addition to its unique features, the premier west Houston community is home to the largest model home collection in the Houston area with fully furnished residences from Highland Homes, Lennar Homes, Newmark Homes, Perry Homes, Trendmaker Homes and Village Builders. Its gated, custom-home neighborhood, The Lakes at Cross Creek Ranch, offers home sites from the $650’s to $1 million with impressive lake views from custom homebuilders Avanti Custom Homes, Huntington Homes, Partners in Building and Taylor Morrison Homes.
