Homework reflects the overall expectations of each grade level; the more advanced the class, the more challenging the expectations. The faculty fosters student growth.

I enrolled two children here a few years apart and they had wonderful experiences participating in summer research programs, band, orchestra, math competitions and more. They made lifelong friends. They are both very well prepared for University and graduated high school with associate degrees.

I worked as a math and science tutor at this high school when it first opened, it had it's first freshman class only at that time. I've seen the school grow, and hopefully in the right direction. Overall, it is a great school with lots of emphasis on academia. Students here are academically enriched as compared to other hs. They surely introduce them to college concepts as well as hands on experience with their dual credit classes and labs, UTEP field trip, Seminars that presents them with real word situations, Science Summer Camps where generously I remember a PhD to Student ratio of 3:20 along with tutors and tons of science fun. It was an honor to work here for the short time I did, and recommended this school to anyone, and encourage the "kiddos" to stick it through.
