Rice Middle School is an Exemplary Middle School in Plano which feeds into Recognized Jasper High School and Recognized Plano Senior High. It's an excellent school with great teachers and an active PTA.
One of the neighborhoods that follow this pattern is the Estates of Russell Creek (Highland Ridge). Fantastic beautiful neighborhood with mature trees, 2 community pools, tennis courts, playground, and basketball court. It's also next Russell Creek park with a lake, soccer, and baseball fields.
Living in Frisco, but going to PISD will not get you an Exemplary Middle School in PISD.
Rice Middle School is the only Exemplary middle school in Plano. It has a great reputation, very active PTA, and wonderful teachers. My kids go to Wyatt Elementary which feeds into Rice Middle. We have been very happy with teachers and principal. Again the PTA is very active. A lot of stay-at-home moms. Our neighborhood Estates of Russell Creek has 2 community pools, lighted tennis courts, playground, and basketball court.
