Katy ISD · Katy / Grand Lakes · 77494

Alexander Elementary — formally Roosevelt Alexander Elementary — is a Katy ISD elementary at 6161 South Fry Road in Katy’s 77494 ZIP, in the heart of Grand Lakes. In TEA’s 2024–25 state ratings the StingRAEs earned an A (95 out of 100) with all six eligible distinction designations, serving about 970 students from early education through grade 5. The school opened in August 1998, named for Roosevelt Alexander, the beloved teacher, coach, and longtime Katy Junior High principal whose Katy ISD career spanned 35 years — and who can still be spotted on campus signing the backs of StingRAE shirts. The feeder run is as strong as the campus: every Alexander address continues to Beckendorff Junior High and Seven Lakes High, both A-rated.

Who was Roosevelt Alexander?

Hired by Katy ISD in 1958 while finishing his master’s at Prairie View A&M, he taught and coached at the original Kilpatrick campus, moved to Katy Junior High when the district integrated in 1970, and led that school as principal from 1981 until his retirement in 1993 — 35 years in all. The campus named for him opened in 1998, and Mr. Alexander remains a familiar face in its halls. The mascot is the Stingray — spelled StingRAE, for Roosevelt Alexander Elementary. School hours are 7:43 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
