Yeah but what you have to remember, is that these large sports complexes are built for the entire ISD (independent school district). So in most cases the complexes are shared by 6-10 schools. We don't split schools by parishes here like in La. Think of it like a bunch of Zachary/Central/EBR 'districts'. Katy ISD has Katy, Morton Ranch, Taylor-Katy, Cinco Ranch, Seven Lakes, and Thompkins (new this year).


i'm referring to the individual schools in TX that have 4-6k enrollments, double what anyone in Louisiana has... it'd be like Jefferson Parish still having just East Jefferson and West Jefferson

Yeah, I was really answering about the large sports complexes here.

You should see the high schools they are building here in Katy. I want to say $8-10 mil? was what Katy ISD spent to build Thompkins. It's huge and has indoor pools and other stuff. It's a bit intimidating to be inside there. But they do keep the classroom ratios very good and Katy is top 2 in all public schools in Houston area.

We moved from BR and was sending our daughter to Catholic elem school. The schools here are easily as good as the privates in most of La and no tuition. However, I pay over $3k a year of my property taxes to Katy ISD.
