At Elyson, we like to say that the whole community is an extension of your house. The pool, the fitness center, the game room and tennis courts…they're all yours. So go on, get out there. We intend to take advantage of every square inch of land Elyson covers…so you can do the same. That's why we have miles of trails that wind through the community. There will be a pond that is perfect for catching (and releasing) or paddling a canoe. And even orchards where you’ll be able to pick your own fruit someday.There will be stores and restaurants right at Elyson. So you'll have everything you need, close to home. There will even be office space (how's that for a short commute?)
We’re proud to be part of the #1 ranked Katy ISD by niche.com. Because it means that our school-age residents get a quality education in a top-rated district—at three brand-new schools on a state-of-the-art campus, plus a future elementary school planned right in our community. What can we say? We love learning.
Since Bethke Elementary opened in 2016, it has nurtured Elyson's youngest students in a state-of-the-art facility that encourages collaboration at an early age. Activity centers for every grade level (along with curved hallways with stools, counters and charging stations) allow kids to gather in smaller groups and share knowledge. Of course, the school supports individual learning, too. With a Makerspace where students can explore projects that intrigue them, such as robotics and coding.
The school also offers the latest and greatest in technology, like SMART boards and iPads. And the classrooms are just as impressive—with science labs that include outdoor learning areas, a library that opens to an outdoor amphitheatre, a gym with a rock-climbing wall and an art room that opens up to a courtyard.
We know what you're thinking. We want to go back to elementary school, too.
Stockdick Junior High opened in 2017, introducing a new era of collaborative and individualized learning for the Katy Independent School District. The school was designed from the ground up to embrace the newest trends and technologies in education, with an all-new architectural design that Assistant Principal Chris Bailey calls "the version 3.0 of education."
Cutting edge features allow the curriculum to be delivered in new and exciting ways, and six flexible-use spaces encourage students to collaborate with each other.
And Stockdick Junior High helps make the transition to high school easy, too. A common "learning green" is shared with neighboring Paetow High School, and the fine arts departments at the junior high and high school are aligned, with team teaching and collaborating on a daily basis.
In other words, school just got really cool.
Paetow High School thinks beyond the traditional. And that starts with the new, three-story, L-shaped design, which reflects an emphasis on student-driven learning and real-world connections. A "learning green" the size of 8 football fields is one of many unique features that you'll discover when you visit for the first time. And three sets of "learning stairs" provide spaces for students and teachers to gather for collaborative learning, arts performances and other activities.
Paetow offers a well-rounded curriculum that acknowledges the importance of arts and athletics. Art classrooms have access to outdoor studio areas, and a 900-seat performing arts center sets the stage for performances. Students have the opportunity to participate in 16 sports—including swimming in the onsite natatorium.
And then there's the technology. Filtered WiFi is present in each classroom, along with five Chromebooks available for student use (family-owned devices are more than welcome as well). Each classroom also has a 55-inch smart panel computer, allowing students and teachers to conduct research and share presentations with the entire class. Paetow also brings in guest speakers (Google was one of the first) that will help every student find his or her path and passion, whether that’s going to college or finding an apprenticeship. (Sorry, seniors. You can't stay here forever.)
