Desoto High School

DeSoto High School sits in a rapidly growing suburb just south of Dallas, part of a community that's seen a lot of new families put down roots over the past decade. The school serves a large, diverse student body and offers a range of programs and extracurriculars — including a football program that draws serious community pride on Friday nights. Families who value a big-school experience with strong ties to the broader DeSoto community, and who are looking for suburban living with easy access to Dallas, will find a lot to like about the area.
