The Colony is a city in Denton County, Texas, United States. The population was 26,531 at the 2000 census. The Colony is home to the 5 Star Athletic Complex, which was completed in 2003. The Colony was named the Sports Illustrated 50th Anniversary Sports Town in that same year. The city is home to Pizza Inn's corporate headquarters, as well as an Edward Don distribution center and a variety of small and medium-sized businesses. Located on the southeast side of the city, across State Highway 121 from most of the city, is Austin Ranch, a mixed-use development consisting of retail businesses, apartments and condominiums. All of The Colony is located inside the Lewisville Independent School District which has built six elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school inside city limits. The elementary schools are Peters Colony Elementary, Camey Elementary, B.B. Owen Elementary, Stewart's Creek Elementary, Ethridge Elementary, and Morningside Elementary. The two middle schools are Griffin Middle School and Lakeview Middle School. The Colony High School is located just north of SH 121 on Blair Oaks Drive and is known as "the home of the Cougars." The Lady Cougars soccer team won the 2007 Class AAAA soccer championship, the school's first in any sport. The Colony is home to the TopCats Drill Team, as well as a marching band that participated in the 1997 Tournament of Roses Parade. The Colony High School also has a football team, as do most high schools in Texas. |
