School for the Talented & Gifted in Pleasant Grove

Tucked into the Pleasant Grove neighborhood in southeast Dallas, School for the Talented & Gifted consistently ranks among the very best schools in all of Texas — a remarkable achievement for a public magnet that draws academically driven students from across Dallas ISD. Families who prioritize rigorous academics and a college-prep culture will find a school that genuinely delivers on that promise, with near-perfect scores across English, math, and science. Pleasant Grove itself is a tight-knit, working-class community with deep roots, and the presence of a school this strong gives families in the area — and throughout the district — a compelling reason to invest in the neighborhood.
