About schools in Denton County

Nearly half of Denton County's 219 ranked public schools land in the top quartile statewide — a concentration of strong performers that's hard to find across Texas at this scale. Spanning 23 districts from the fast-growing suburbs of Frisco and Flower Mound to the college town of Denton, the county blends sprawling newer campuses with more established communities, and the academic results hold up across that variety. Bluebonnet Elementary in Flower Mound and Pioneer Heritage Middle in Frisco both rank at the 99th percentile statewide in English and math, signaling genuine depth at the top rather than a single outlier.
