The sky is the limit for our students as they explore high-flying careers at Franklin High School’s 2nd Annual P-TECH Palooza!
Hello Team,
There is a distinct sense of pride moving through our campuses right now, not just for the work being done today, but for the future we are inviting families to be a part of.
Our 2026-27 Registration remains in full swing, and it has been inspiring to see so many families choosing El Paso ISD as their home for the upcoming year. But while we look toward the future, we are also focused on the "here and now."
Our state testing period continues this week. To our students: take a deep breath and trust in the preparation you’ve put in all year. You’ve got the grit, the talent, and the support of this entire district behind you!
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who "Purpled Up" last Friday. Seeing our campuses flooded with purple to honor our military-connected families was a powerful reminder of the community and gratitude that define us.
