Good morning, Denton.
🎓 Education
UNT students attended the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival in downtown Toronto as part of the UNT GIO Program offered by the Study Abroad Office—joining exclusive film screenings, panels, master classes, and red-carpet events.
This trip allowed them to connect classroom learning with real-world industry practices and prepare for future film careers.
Denton ISD will ask voters to approve Proposition A—a 5-cent tax rate increase on Nov.
4—that could add $26 million in funding to help fix a $15 million deficit, fill 250 open positions, and address rising class sizes. The new funds are set to boost teacher salaries, school safety, and enrichment programs amid growing staffing challenges.
🏛️ Government
City officials said the city will swap 9.4 acres next to South Lakes Park used for school sports with Denton ISD for 3.4 acres on Congress — land that may become a park.
Officials explained the exchange will help both sides use their space more efficiently — a move designed to improve community resources.
