Posted

When doors open for Katy ISD’s tenth high school in fall 2024, Gina Cobb will welcome students as their first-ever principal. Cobb, who closed out the 2022-23 school year as principal of Mayde Creek High School, will assume the principalship for the new campus this summer.

“I am confident that Ms. Cobb will lead the school toward a promising future and will create a culture that aligns with Katy ISD’s mission and vision for student success,” Superintendent. Ken Gregorski said.

Cobb has been a part of the Katy ISD family since 1999 when she began her career in public education. From 1999-2006, she taught and coached at Katy and Morton Ranch junior highs and Morton Ranch High School. In 2006, she began her administrative career in the district. She has held several administrative titles from 2006-12 at Morton Ranch High School, including grade-level assistant principal, administrative assistant principal, student support assistant principal and associate principal.

She served as the principal of West Memorial Junior High for eight years before being appointed as the Mayde Creek High School principal in 2021. Cobb has held that position for the past two years.

“I am so excited to start this next chapter and to partner with the students, parents and staff of Katy ISD’s newest high school,” Cobb said. “Together we will establish a community of excellence for years to come.  We will build something special.”

Cobb earned her bachelor’s degree in applied learning and development at the University of Texas at Austin and her master’s degree in educational leadership from Prairie View A&M University.
