Franz Elementary SPARK Park is a cooperative venture between Katy ISD and Franz parents and students. Visual artist Rose Toro guided students in decorating bollards around the walking trail with tile mosaics depicting the four seasons and the school’s mascot the Firebird. The park includes a concrete trail, sensory play panels, musical instruments, and 34 native Texas trees.
