Franz Elementary School - Katy ISD

Katy ISD · Katy / Westgreen · 77449

Franz Elementary is a Katy ISD elementary at 2751 North Westgreen Boulevard in Katy’s 77449 ZIP, a few blocks from the Mason Road and Franz Road intersection that carries its name. In TEA’s 2025–26 state ratings the Firebirds earned a C (78 out of 100) with one of six eligible distinction designations, serving about 1,105 students from early education through grade 5. The zone splits only at the junior-high step — roughly six in ten addresses to Morton Ranch Junior High, four in ten to McDonald — and every address lands at Morton Ranch High School. The Franz family arrived in Katy in 1896, after David Peter Franz left Prussia to escape military conscription, and the family’s 160 acres sat right where Mason Road meets Franz Road today.

Franz pairs Raintree Village and Castle Rock pricing with a simple map — because both junior-high roads converge at Morton Ranch High, the split matters less here than the block-by-block drive times. As your real estate buyer’s agent I’ll confirm the assignment on every home we tour, weigh dues, MUD taxes and flood history, and negotiate on your behalf — we’ll agree on how I’m paid up front and in writing.
