History
Kingwood High School opened in the fall of 1979, under Principal Andy Wells. A 9th grade school at 4015 Woodland Hills Drive opened in 1993. It was in operation until spring 2007. Kingwood was annexed into the City of Houston in 1996. Prior to 1996 both schools were in the Kingwood census-designated location in an unincorporated area in Harris County.
Prior to fall 2007, as 9th graders went to the separate campus, integrated registration was over 4,000, making Kingwood High School the 7th largest Texas public high school by registration at the time. The previous 9th grade campus was renovated and is now an independent high school, called Kingwood Park High School.
Simply before the start of the 2017-2018 school year, Kingwood High School was badly harmed by flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey. This implied that the students that year took their classes at Summer Creek High School.
The school was arranged to reopen in March 2018 after having repairs worth upwards of $70 million.
