Since Southlake Town Square broke ground in the late ’90s, Southlake’s population has doubled, filling the plains with master-built communities and catapulting Carroll ISD to 6A status. The community has collectively continued to grow, and along the way, cherished traditions have been adopted, different perspectives shared and new relationships cultivated.
Today’s Southlake belongs to an ever-growing group of people from different backgrounds and beliefs. New neighbors may not know what to expect from each other at first, but whether they’ve moved from the coasts, came from overseas or have been firmly entrenched here for generations, one thing is certain — Southlake is a special community that embraces each other’s differences and comes together like no other.
The following city leaders, educators and volunteers take that community spirit to heart as they pay it forward in both big and small ways, making every resident feel seen and valued. Let's face it — when we’re all working together, it makes for a stronger, more unified Southlake.
