School Overview

Burges High School sits in the eastern part of El Paso, a city defined by its deep border culture, tight-knit neighborhoods, and strong sense of community pride. The school shows a bit more strength in math than in English or science, making it a reasonable fit for families with students who lean toward quantitative subjects. Families drawn to El Paso's affordable cost of living, military community ties (Fort Bliss is right next door), and the area's unique mix of Texan and borderland culture will find Burges to be a solid neighborhood option in a city that takes care of its own.
