Mattei Middle

Mattei Middle sits in Princeton, one of the fastest-growing towns in Collin County, where new subdivisions and young families have been arriving in waves over the past decade. The school shows particular strength in math, which is a good sign for a community still finding its footing academically as the district scales up to meet rapid population growth. Families drawn to the area by affordable home prices relative to nearby Frisco or McKinney will find a school that's solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, with room to grow alongside the town itself.
