Sachse Schools
Sachse residents who live in Dallas County are zoned to schools in Garland Independent School District, whereas Sachse residents who live in Collin County are zoned to the Wylie Independent School District. Both school districts are rated “academically acceptable” by the Texas Education Agency, and boast a wide variety of academic and athletic opportunities for students. In addition, Garland ISD residents have a “choice-of-school” option that allows families to choose what school in the district that they want their student(s) to attend.
Sachse is also home to the Garland Campus of Richland College, which offers a 7-week training course for Certified Logistics Workers. Potential students must be between the ages of 18-21, have a high school diploma or GED, and there is no cost to qualified participants.
