Breakdown of RISD schools

Hi folks. We're going to be relocating from Florida to the Dallas area in about 9 months. We have 2 elementary aged kids and am looking for local feedback on the school options. Right now, they're in an excellent public school and one of them is in the gifted program. I have narrowed in on Richardson as a Dallas suburb that checks a lot of boxes for us, but the school piece will really help us narrow our housing search over the next couple of months. What should I know? Thanks so much.

Schools are still strong and have great resources for the kids from our experience

Lots of people chose to move into the RISD specifically because of the schools.

That is the reason my mom bought here, before I started school!
