Premier High School of El Paso

As a parent of a student who attends Premier, I am aware of the problems caused by the past administration. I think those are now fixed... all of the teachers are wonderful, caring, supportive, highly educated people. My child has been able to not only catch up with her work but now is ahead, and hopes to graduate a year early. I understand all schools have problems but this is one school that actually fixes their problems and truly wants to help their students. Thanks for giving El Paso an alternative to other public schools.

KEEP YOUR KIDS IN THEIR ORIGINAL HIGH SCHOOL!! I do not reccomend this school to anyone. I am a student and have been trying to get out of that school for 4 years now. Premier High School is a black hole.

I have had many problems with this school's principal and some teachers. Class schedules were changed so frequently that no one seemed to know where to go. This is amazing for such a small school of about 110 students. My daughter had difficulty getting questions answered in Science and English. She was told that she had to find the answers herself as this was a self paced curriculum. She was often told by teachers, staff and administration that she may get kicked out. This principal has difficulty running this school, he is frequently absent, students are occasionally dismissed without prior parental notification. I attended a Parent Meeting and heard that students were not going to be dismissed early and then in the next few weeks they were dismissed early. Calls were made as students were being dismissed. Student cell phones have been lost by teachers and administration.
