History

Before the school was built, Humble ISD board members agreed to scale down the building's design. The school was scheduled to allow other Humble ISD students who wish to attend a high school smaller than the ones they are zoned to transfer to KPHS.

Location and features

The school is located at 4015 Woodland Hills Drive, the former location of the Kingwood High School Ninth Grade Campus. The building was expanded to include a new gymnasium, a $25 million natatorium, auditorium, dance practice rooms, a wrestling arena, multi-purpose rooms, two large group instruction rooms, new state-of-the-art classrooms, and expanded administrative offices.

The school's campus is bisected by the Harris County, Texas / Montgomery County, Texas line. The campus lies partially in both counties.

Athletics

Initially the school competed in athletic division 3A.

Boys Swimming

The boys' swim team won state championships in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2015.

Feeder schools

Elm Grove, Foster, Woodland Hills and Bear Branch elementary schools feed students into Kingwood Middle School. Kingwood Middle School and parts of Creekwood Middle School feeds into Kingwood Park High School.
