GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

ILTEXAS KATY-WESTPARK High School has a strong academic program with emphasis on the leadership and bilingual education.The diverse student body and the extracurricular opportunities are great for personal growth.However,overcrowded classrooms and strict disciplinary policies can be challenging at times.Improved communication between the school and the families would help enhance the experience.Overall, its a solid choice for students seeking a rigorous well-rounded education.

At ILTexas KWHS, the experience is like no other. We learn three languages, have a Career preparing path, and get extra curricular help when we need it. Teachers help as much as possible and they strive for the success of each student.

The best part about being a student at Katy-Westpark is that you get the opportunity to build connections while learning how to be a leader of today and tomorrow. The worst part about being a student there is that a lot of the students there don't take advantage of what the school offers and so it leads to their downfall. As long as you keep up with the work and get the tutoring you need you will be successful throughout the year.
