Summary

Jeanette Hayes Elementary is a PK-5 school in Katy, TX, serving 515 students within the highly-rated Katy Independent School District (Isd), and it consistently ranks among the top 10% of Texas elementary schools, earning a 5-star rating in seven of the last ten years.

What truly sets Hayes Elementary apart is its exceptional support for Special Education students, ranking in the 94th percentile for this subgroup—a standout strength compared to nearby schools like Hazel S Pattison Elementary (98th percentile overall) and Sue Creech Elementary. The school also boasts a smaller student body and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.3:1, which is notably lower than peers like Hazel S Pattison Elementary (15.3:1) and Nottingham Country Elementary (13.3:1), suggesting more individualized attention. Academically, Hayes shines in 4th Grade Reading, where 82.5% of students are proficient—16.7 points above the district average and 29.5 points above the state average—outpacing nearby schools like Joella Exley Elementary (64.84%) and Nottingham Country Elementary (72.88%).

However, the school faces challenges. While it excels with Special Education students, its performance with Low Socio-Economic Status students dropped to the 80th percentile in 2025-2026, down from the 90th percentile the previous year. Additionally, Math scores, while above district averages, are less dominant—for example, 3rd Grade Math proficiency (60%) is only 5 points above the district average, compared to a 10-point lead in Reading. This pattern is common among nearby schools like Edna Mae Fielder Elementary and James E Williams Elementary. Notably, Hayes sits in a diverse performance landscape: its closest neighbor, Memorial Parkway Elementary (0.93 miles away), ranks in the 39th percentile, while Hazel S Pattison Elementary (1.19 miles away) ranks in the 98th percentile. Hayes offers a consistently high-quality education in the upper-middle tier, with a higher per-student investment ($11,914) than Pattison ($8,893), reflecting its commitment to supporting a diverse student body.
