Northgate Forest, Texas facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Northgate Forest is a golf course community in unincorporated Harris County, Texas, United States, in Greater Houston. It is located directly off of Farm to Market Road 1960, 13 miles (21 km) west of George Bush Intercontinental Airport and 18 miles (29 km) north of Downtown Houston.

Education

Northgate Forest is zoned to Spring Independent School District.

Residents are zoned to Pat Reynolds Elementary School, Wells Middle School, and Westfield High School. Reynolds was originally named Oak Creek Elementary School.

The spokesperson for the subdivision's pro-Spring ISD secession group, Tom Mathews, said in 2007 that 45 school aged children resided in the community. 7 attended Spring ISD schools, and the rest attended private schools. According to Mathews, the zoned schools (Oak Creek, Wells, and Westfield) all were low performing, so most parents did not send their children to the zoned schools.
