Paschal is the Highland Park (Dallas) of Fort Worth. If you compare National Merit Finalists and AP scores - Paschal is always among the elite DFW schools. GO PANTHERS!
Our two children graduated from Paschal after spending their K-8 years at private schools. We were nervous about public schools, but we quickly discovered that our fears were unfounded. Paschal is great. There is a place for everyone there. Both of our children have gone on to attend top colleges, and they were very well prepared. We feel blessed that our children were able to attend Paschal.
I graduated in Paschal in 2008 and am now a senior in college and I can attest that I received an excellent education. When I got to college it was obvious that I had received a better education than many of my peers. I am now majoring in Secondary Education - Social Studies and I plan to use the teachers I had in high school as models to help my future students achieve the same academic success that I was able to so that they may continue their education and be successful in whatever endeavors they may undertake. Go Panthers!
Paschal High School is one of the best academic schools in Fort Worth. Children that have spent their entire education in magnet programs will choose Paschal over the magnet high schools, just because the academics are so much better. My daughter graduated from Paschal in 2006 and she and all of her friends all pursued higher education. Not one of them stopped at high school. Although the "home students" -the students that live in the surrounding area- may not be as successful as the students that have transferred in, it is not a failure of the school, but rather a failure of those parents that don't seem to realize the potential of their own children. I would recommend Paschal High School to any family in the Fort Worth area.
We win academically. Girls soccer has won back-to-back district championships. Orchestra, choir, and band have great programs. I absolutely love my teachers, they all put in an amazing amount of outside work and provide tutoring hours. There are many extracurricular activities to get involved in; everyone can find a place to belong at PHS. Plus we have the most national merit semi-finalists in the area.

Paschal H.S. has an advanced academic program designed to reach out to all students.
I attended Paschal and was graduated in 1963. The education that I acquired at Paschal most certainly prepared me for the world ahead of me. My daughter also graduated from Paschal. I am now retired and have been for several years. In addition to my daughter and myself being graduated from Paschal, my mother and my uncle, who is now a retired dentist, both graduated form Paschal. If you are considering a high school for your child or yourself, Pascal should be placed at the top of your list.
This is a very strong academic school. In the latest Newsweek High School Ranking, Paschal was ranked #171 in the nation.
