    The entire school is just simply amazing. Everyone is friendly and because the school doesn't have as many students as an average high school, the entire campus knows each other and acts as one big family. The teachers are super engaging and are much more fun than other high schools in my opinion. Because of this, there is a large support system for struggling students and a lot of one on one assistance if needed, 20/10 would recommend!

    Mission Early College High School is very different compared to other high school’s in El Paso, Tx. It only has two building and the rest of the classrooms are portables. Since the campus itself is small you see people everyday, every time, and everywhere. However, this is not a disadvantage rather than it is an advantage because closed friendships are formed with people from all grades even with teachers. Sports are played only during lunch leaving more time for academics. But what makes Mission stand out is the great environment, produced by all the teachers and students, greeting everyone with a warm smile.
    If you want to get ahead, feel what it feels in order to be in college, as well as have a high school life, do you want a school with a small student count and low bullying rate, then this is the school for you, my experience at this high school has been amazing, the teachers are nice and teach well, the student there are nice, and furthermore, the faculty is very helpful as well, the only thing that needs fixing is the environment of the school, but other then that, this school is perfect for anyone that wants to get help with finances as well as get ahead in the future.
