DECATS is a Roman Catholic institution as part of the Catholic Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. Total enrollment for DECATS 2008 was 250 students. Students and faculty of all religions, races, and ethnicities are welcome at DECATS.

Principals of elementary schools in the archdiocese nominate students to attend DECATS. The public school institutions on the list above represent those Scholars who attended a school in the archdiocesan system upon their original nomination to DECATS and switched to a public school institution during their time of DECATS eligibility.

The map below shows the population density of the Scholars and faculty of DECATS 2008. Blue tacks represent Scholars, and red tacks represent faculty.( Note: in order for all tacks to be within the screenshot, significant zooming out took place. Several tacks are stacked on top of each other, meaning areas may be more dense than they appear.)
