Located at 800 Eagle Dr. in Argyle, the newly-renovated Sixth Grade Center will open its doors for the 2023-2024 school year.

The choirs from Hilltop Elementary and Argyle West joined collective voices today to bring some beautiful performances to the community. The choirs consist of very talented 4th and 5th graders from both schools. They traveled to several different venues including the Argyle ISD Administration Building where they serenaded the staff and teachers writing curriculum.
The performance was a wonderful surprise, providing an infectious energy to everyone that listened. Other stops for them included several local assisted living facilities where they shared their beautiful voices with the residents.
A huge thank you to their directors, Megan Lamb from Argyle West and Bonnie Barkley from Hilltop, for sharing the talents of their wonderful students with our staff and community.
