El Paso High School

I'm extremely pleased with staff and students who I see are doing good and love the attention to detail with education. Thank you

My daughter has been going to the “big mesita” now for a couple of years and one thing that sticks out to me the most is the staff’s attitudes. Throughout the years, my daughter has told me how the lunchroom personnel and some of the teachers are condescending and just seem downright annoyed when they speak to the kids. My husband even witnessed a situation like this there in person. I’m not ok with this. I don’t send my child to school to be abused or ridiculed & I’ll be damned if someone gives my kid a complex. They need some training on how to manage children more effectively. I can understand now why no one wants to go the public school route anymore.

This is an amazing school. The teachers really care. They are not going to sugarcoat the way other private schools do. Honest and dedicated to each child. If you want the social links that come with private schools, this school is not it! They are only interested in the kids and could care less what parents do for a living. Refreshing change from last school.

Our family has been part of First Presbyterian Preschool & School for the past seven years, and it has truly been an incredible experience. From the very beginning, we were drawn to the warm, nurturing environment and the genuine care the teachers and staff show for every child.The school’s hands-on, curiosity-driven approach to learning has helped our children grow not only academically, but also socially, emotionally, and spiritually. The small class sizes make a huge difference — teachers know each student well and are able to meet them where they are, encouraging confidence, independence, and a love of learning.What sets First Pres apart is the strong sense of community. Families are welcomed, communication is thoughtful and consistent, and there is a clear commitment to helping each child thrive. The emphasis on character, faith, creativity, and real-world learning has prepared our children well for each next stage of their education.After seven years, we can confidently say this school has been an amazing foundation for our family, and we are incredibly grateful to be part of such a caring and intentional community.
