The students are disrespectful. Half of the student body are minorities. The teachers are very strict but they're not the best teachers. I believe the teachers do care about the students and their duty to educate them. To get a quality education here, a student must participate in honor courses. Otherwise nothing really gets taught.

Administrators just disregard my concerns for my child's safety. On several occasions my interactions with staff has been very unprofessional. The after-school pro...

Last year was a bit rocky but I’m very pleased this year. People knock this school sometimes due to past experience or things they’ve heard. I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical as well. But it’s an IB School and they are proving that they can live up to the expectations. Middle School is not easy, I co...

Some streets in Denton still feel the way the whole town used to — this is one of them. Big lot, mature trees, a front yard that actually gets used. The house splits its living space into two distinct rooms instead of one big open box: a bright front room framed by bay windows for coffee and morning...
