Summary

Nottingham Country Elementary in Katy, TX, is a well-regarded public school in the Katy Independent School District (Isd), serving 836 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade and consistently ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools with a 4-star rating.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in upper elementary math, particularly in 5th grade, where 72.39% of students were proficient in math—a 25-percentage-point advantage over the state average and an 11-point advantage over the district. Nottingham Country also excels in supporting students with special needs, ranking in the 91st percentile statewide for this subgroup. While the school has seen a slight dip in its overall state ranking from the 93rd to the 87th percentile over the past few years, it remains a stable, high-quality option in a neighborhood with a stark achievement gap. Nearby schools like Hazel S Pattison Elementary (98th percentile) and Jeanette Hayes Elementary (90th percentile) perform at or above Nottingham's level, while others like Sundown Elementary (36th percentile) and West Memorial Elementary (22nd percentile) struggle significantly.

Nottingham Country serves a relatively diverse student body, with about 35% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch—a middle ground compared to the more affluent Pattison Elementary (23%) and higher-poverty schools like Sundown (85%). The school also shows a fascinating pattern of academic growth, with reading proficiency improving dramatically from 63% in 3rd grade to 80.6% in 5th grade, suggesting its curriculum is particularly effective at accelerating reading skills in upper elementary grades. With a lower student-teacher ratio (13.3:1) and higher per-pupil spending ($11,057) than Pattison, Nottingham Country achieves strong results with a more diverse community, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a balanced, high-performing school.

Teachers
Are very hands on and very involved with the students progress.
Very much goal driven and teach our kids to do the same. Close Quote

This school is a fantastic little school with an AMAZING amount if parent involvement. They have a HUGE PTA that works very,very hard to involve each and every parent. They reach out to working parents with "at home" projects as well. They are tremendously supportive of the teachers and the result is a school where the educators seem to live their job and the kids get tons of extra attention,field trips, special events such as visiting authors and phenomenal field trips that are paid for by this tremendous PTA.
My child is a high achiever, and I am impressed at how they are constantly helping her achieve more. They are also very involved with helping students who need additional attention. Again, many parents, are involved with a Literacy Library program to tutor kids with reading.
Many times, I have volunteered for field trips only to be turned away due to too many people helping out. The school is relatively small with an enrollment of only 650 kids which is rare in this mammoth school district. There is no room to expand, so this elementary will always feel like a private school where everyone knows each and every child. I used to a my child to a private school before moving here and this public school has exceeded the experience I had previously. Nottingham Country Elementary is a gem in the crown of Katy ISD.
