The Katy Independent School District has received enough Ten Commandments posters to supply every classroom in the district, according to a February 3 post on Facebook by KISD board of trustees member Mary Ellen Cuzela.

“Thru multiple small donors, each and every Katy ISD classroom was donated a Ten Commandments poster,” Cuzela said in the post. “That's [about] 6,125.”

“There was no big donor, but lots of small donors showing broad support of the Ten Commandments being in classrooms,” Cuzela’s post said. “Typical donation amounts were $3, $10, $30, $60, $90.”

The Katy Times reached out to Katy ISD for confirmation and a district spokesperson confirmed that as of February 5, there were 5,614 posters donated and that the district has about 6,115 classrooms. The district declined to answer further questions about the timetable or process for installation of the posters.

The district is currently named as a defendant in a lawsuit over the posters. A group of 18 multifaith and nonreligious Texas families filed a class action lawsuit on December 2, 2025, to stop all Texas public school districts that are not already involved in active litigation or subject to an injunction from displaying the Ten Commandments in every classroom. Even though two federal judges in Texas have ruled that Senate Bill 10 is unconstitutional, school districts across the state continue to display the Ten Commandments. Katy ISD is one of the 16 districts named in the suit, according to the Americans United website at https://www.au.org/the-latest/press/.

When that lawsuit was filed, the Katy Times reached out to Katy ISD for comment on the case as well as for details on what will happen to posters now in place as well as to future donations of posters. “The district does not comment on pending litigation,” according to a spokesperson for KISD media relations.

Similarly, the district declined to comment on February 6 when the Katy Times again posed questions about Cuzela’s post and the plans for the posters. The Times was told to file a public information request to get the additional information requested.
