Epiphany Catholic Church was commissioned by the Archdiocese of Galveston Houston to establish a new Catholic day school in Katy. Our firm developed a master plan to study the viability of the school, and to address building issues that had arisen over the parish’s twenty-five years of growth. The master plan adds a new two-story classroom building to replace outdated single-story education buildings. The new classroom building, in addition to renovations within the existing faith formation building, will accommodate a new day school for over eight-hundred children. The plan also envisioned a new grand plaza to mark the entrance to the parish campus from the south. It would be bordered by the school on the west, a new parish hall on the north, and a new entrance to the existing church on the east. The new church entrance, in the form of a tower, will serve to draw parishioners from the south parking lot into the proper entrance of the narthex, instead of the over-used side entrance.
