At Lantana, we're teaching a
valuable lesson about the importance of education in
your child's future.
The education of your child is one of our top
considerations. Two elementary schools, the first
opened August 2002, and one middle school, to be
located within Lantana -- all part of the renowned
Denton Independent School District.
But our greatest commitment to education is the
Lantana Education/Charitable Foundation. This
organization was created to fund special educational
and charitable programs.
In 2000, the Foundation committed $1 million to the
Denton Independent School District, enabling an
elementary school to be built for Lantana students to
begin the 2002 school year. The foundation will
receive one-half of one percent from the sale of all
real estate sold or transferred, both current and
future, within Lantana.
This unprecedented innovation is helping build
Lantana's reputation as one of the country's most
"education friendly" communities.
