School Overview

Calhoun Middle sits in Denton, a lively college town anchored by UNT and TWU that draws a mix of longtime locals, academics, and young families who appreciate its arts scene and relative affordability compared to the nearby DFW suburbs. The school serves a pretty typical cross-section of Denton's diverse community, with English scores hovering closer to the middle of the pack while math presents more of a challenge — something worth keeping in mind as students head toward high school. Families already rooted in this part of Denton who value the city's independent spirit over suburban polish will likely find it a workable fit, especially if they stay engaged with their student's progress along the way.
