LaGrone Academy

Empowering Lifelong Learners

    Welcome to LaGrone Academy

    • To keep pace in the rapidly changing world, Denton ISD opened the state-of-the-art LaGrone Advanced Technology Complex in 2006. It is a professional training facility to prepare high school students for today’s and tomorrow’s high-demand careers.

      The complex’s main purpose is to provide high school juniors and seniors with professional training and/or pre-college courses. Students also have the opportunity to earn university or community college credit and/or the necessary preparation to attain certifications or licenses in certain technical fields. In 2021 Denton Independent School District announced the establishment of the LaGrone Academy, a high school of choice, that would sharpen the district’s focus on college and career readiness.
